I agree with Charlie here.

Currently projects are using RUBY_PLATFORM to determine functionality
across platforms (mswin32, mingw, java) and provide features to each
one of these.

How this new RUBY_ENGINE will affect developers? Will ENGINE affect
the generated bytecode in case of the compiler, or it will be
evaluated at runtime every time it gets executed (like conditionals).

Actually, what we are trying to track here?
