ruby-debug doesn't work in 1.9; my estimate is that it will be a while
before it works anywhere well as it does on 1.8.

A summer student was very interested in making it work on 1.9 via
Google 2008 Summer of Code and the Ruby Foundation, but the other
mentors and administrator felt there were other projects which were
much more important. So that summer student is instead working on
another project in Python.
