A huge thanks to all of ruby-core for this, and for your hard work on
release management, Yugui.

Now that Ruby 1.9 is released, it seems there is no need for 1.8.7.

Is there a possibility that Ruby 1.8.8 will go back to being similar
to 1.8.6 and remove the 1.9 compatibility shims?
This would make maintaining old 1.8 code much easier.
