Ruby 1.9.3 has been released 2 weeks ago and relicensed under Ruby or 
BSD 2-clauses, so it's time to ditch good ol' Ruby 1.8.7*

Best regards,

PS: why the hell are we still shipping this crap ? Ruby 1.9.x has been 
the stable branch for almost three years, now. Upstream has decided to 
stop providing bugfixes for Ruby 1.8.7 by june 2012 and CVE fixes by 
june 2013.
