More specifically, I'd like a switch to 1.9.3+ as default.  I hope the
end result will not be <= 1.9.2, for a number of reasons, including the
fact that 1.9.3 is when Ruby started using a copyfree license (the
Simplified BSD License, or 2-clause BSD License) instead of the previous
copyleft license (the GPL).
