The false positive rate on this warning is very low. My understanding
is that some of the distro's backported the buggy Ruby code into their
shipping Ruby packages. While annoying, I'm sure some of the more
proficient Fedora users can guide you on how to get a working Ruby
interpreter.

I updated the message to be a little more clear and added a warning for
Ruby 1.9.x as well.
