Since there seems to be some confusion, here's a re-translation of
this part of [ruby-dev:32061]

1-1-2: enabling rubygems by default, and hence endorsing it as part of
the official Ruby language specification, imposes restrictions on
future possible feature loading system implementations. Specifically,
such new systems will need to support version aware future loading.
(... possibly raising the bar too high?)
