The way the 'mysql' gem handles this is pretty good. It adds the ISO date to the version number for platforms other than 'ruby', viz:

Select which gem to install for your platform (i686-linux)
 1. mysql 2.7.2006.05.10 (mswin32)
 2. mysql 2.7.2006.04.21 (mswin32)
 3. mysql 2.7 (ruby)
 4. mysql 2.6 (ruby)
 5. mysql 2.5.1 (ruby)
 6. Cancel installation

If neither of these are good, and other people would like to just
install the current version without a prompt, then I can setup
a /current/ gem source that's like /releases/ but it just contains the
current production release.  But, at least try the other two options
before making me do work. :-)
