Comment(by dreamcat4@…):

 We would be better off implementing this as a wrapper ontop of Ticket
 #22530. And then replacing the existing rubygems fetch method with a
 similar wrapper. This will allow more freedom to specify alternate gem
 source(s).

 What's not clear is whether we need to implement some failover or a
 priority list. Ie if a gem migrates from rubyforge to gemcutter. We might
 just update those manually and avoid implement such a complex priorities
 mechanism.
