A lot of people still run 1.8.6 - not so long ago 1.8.7 was a bit
quirky. Earlier versions of rails wouldn't quite work with 1.8.7 (I
can remember exactly when 1.8.7 compatibility came in, I suspect 2.1).
The note in the changelog about ruby 1.9 is a bit misleading. Ruby 1.9
was a rapidly moving target at the time. At many points in the past
year people have contributed patches that fixed one aspect of
compatibility with 1.9 only for a subsequent change in 1.9 to unveil
other problems.
