Good idea. My only immediate suggestion is...

I think "enabled?" would be more appropriate.

Any implementation which writes its own garbage collector should, in
principle, be able to offer the same feature. Not sure about the others
(JRuby, IronRuby and MacRuby come to mind), though. But IMO this is not
enough of a reason to give up the GC profiler: no production software would
really miss it, and it's not like people using one of those platforms don't
have other (possibly better) choices for profiling and debugging tools.
