It's a little trickier than that.  You need to (1) make modules 
available via ordinary 'require' instead of 'require_gem' (or whatever 
we like to use today), (2) prevent "require 'rubygems'" from insinuating 
rubygems into your program, and (3) still allow 'gem install foo' to 
work for module authors that insiste upon only distributing gems.
