Hi Marcin,

I'm at the place where I recognize that 1.8.7 compatibility is
entirely a lost cause, so these merge requests were simply to allow us
to transition Jenkins over to Ruby 1.9.3. That's what I meant in my
earlier email:

So, as one example, if one of our gems is going to run on the ruby193
buildslave, we need to load the simplecov-rcov gem so Jenkins can read
the rcov reports.

In summary: I'm not trying to maintain 1.8.7 support any more. I'm
just trying to make the gems run smoothly on RHEL 6 with Ruby 1.9.3.
