First thanks for all your work on this. 

An entry in /usr/ports/UPDATING mentioning the RUBY_VER= 1.8 would be in place.

After my portmaster run i did not get the ruby19-gems port.
After reading the UPDATING file, and did not found anything related, i searched my e-mail and found your message.

 
Regards,
