Good call. It is expected one last 1.8.6 release with bugfixes by the
end of the year and will put the last stone (announced at RubyKaigi
2011 by Kirk Haines)

If I might suggest something, please adjust the gemspec of all rspec2
gems on your next release to be >= 1.8.7, that way will block the
installation of the gems reducing the potential bug reports due 1.8.6
behavior.
