Subject: Re: installing 1.8.7

It's generally not a good idea to override Mac OS X's ruby because, as
Luc noticed, a future software update might override your custom
install, but also it might break the system itself, because some of
its functionality is written in Ruby and could be broken if an
incompatible version is used.
