 1.8.7 is a version that should probable never been released at all,
 incorporating language changes from 1.9 that many people/software are not
 really ready to embrace, use and support.  There is a consensus on the
 ruby-talk list about that (see http://www.ruby-forum.com/topic/168054 as
 an example).

 Latest is p287 in the 1.8.6 line.

 Thanks.
