Bug #12385: xmlrpc requires Ruby version >= 2.4.0., and produces an error even though I have Ruby 2.4.0

With
```
make up; make install-nodoc
```
I get the error below. There are two issues with this:
1) I have Ruby 2.4.0, so it's very unclear why this should produce an error
2) xmlrpc has been around for a long time, and older versions of xmlrpc should work fine with older versions of Ruby, so the error message should say which version of xmlrpc it is that needs Ruby >= 2.4.4

```
