Thanks.

In future projects I write I'll just make ">= 1.8.7" a dependency and 
assume the world is a very nice place.

(I've just looked into DataMapper's gemspec and I see they don't put a 
dependency on a certain version on Ruby. As if they don't care. But 
surely they don't support old Rubys. I guess that's their prerogative 
(thanks Britny!). They're big so they don't care. I, on the other hand, 
am small, so I need to bother myself with these details.)
