Feature #7711: RubyGems uses autoload

Using a custom require method, I ran into an issue with RubyGems b/c it is using autoload:

  https://github.com/rubygems/rubygems/blob/master/lib/rubygems.rb#L1062-L1074

Seeing that autoload is now discouraged from standard libs (http://blade.nagaokaut.ac.jp/cgi-bin/scat.rb/ruby/ruby-core/41149), when might we see it removed?
