And if I am on OS X, but want to fetch gems for JRuby or Ruboto, I might use the "--platform java" or "--platform ruboto" options to get the desired gem variants? Can I use both? >> I am a developer in the Ruboto project. We seek information on how to enable >> users of Ruboto to both relase Ruboto-specific gems and comsume gems in >> Ruboto projects.

OK, so setting spec.platform = 'ruboto' in the gemspec will make a gem that will not install on other platforms. I will try this.
