All sounds good, but what do prior versions of rubygems do when you push
non-numeric versions to the repository?

If they blow up spectacularly, then I think you should add a check that will
not allow any non-numeric-version gemspec to be built unless the rubygems
version is >= the version which will contain your patch.  Which SHOULD be
1.4.0 (major feature addition, not bugfix), and that version should be
committed to the RubyGems repo right now - because the code in the repo is
no longer 1.3.anything ;)
