a. Ruby trunk has some objectionable code, which I believe we shouldn't
merge, and noone seems to be interested in discussing or reverting it:
http://bugs.ruby-lang.org/issues/6854
b. They've had a bug about removing ruby-mode.el for months now:
http://bugs.ruby-lang.org/issues/6823 Again, no movement there.
c. No ELPA repositories are tracking Ruby trunk anymore. We just have
some older versions uploaded to Marmalade and Tromey's archive a while
back.

True, just a potential problem for users with Emacs 24.2 and earlier.
