If ActiveSupport required an older version than what was bundled,
you'd run the risk of requiring an older version of the gem that
happened to be installed on your system, even if you didn't explicitly
declare it via config.gem.

I do think we should respect a version explicitly specified via
config.gem, even if it's an older version than the bundled one (which
we're not doing right now.) Or at least give feedback that we're not
respecting the user's declared wishes. I don't know if this would even
be possible -- we'd have to somehow introspect the gem requirements, I
guess.

Fyi, Rails should be compatible with any tzinfo version in the 0.3.x
series (and possibly the 0.2.x series, though I haven't tested this
recently.) For the most part, the version upgrades are just changes to
tzdata; there haven't been any changes to the api in 0.3.x that would
affect compatibility.
