Hi Ken,

I'm sorry we're causing you trouble. Right now we have lots of things to do to 
get Gitorious 3 running flawlessly, and keeping focus on 1.8 fixes has perhaps 
not been top priority. If there are quick fixes we can do to help you we're 
happy to do it, but like we've discussed before, this is going to be 
increasingly difficult. Also, ruby 1.8.7 has been EOL-ed 
(https://www.ruby-lang.org/en/news/2013/06/30/we-retire-1-8-7/) and Rails 4, 
which will most probably be a base for Gitorious 4, requires 1.9+ and 
recommends ruby 2.0.

- Marcin
