Updates for Ruby

So, portage must really be behind the updates or someone in charge of ruby is slacking. As of now, portage only recognizes =dev-lang/ruby-1.8.7-p174, which the file doesn’t exist in any repository. What does exist however is =dev-lang/ruby-1.8.7-p249. The downfall is that it relies on =app-admin/eselect-ruby-20091225 which… doesn’t exist. You have to love updates!!

For convenience, I just added both into the /usr/local/portage tree, and digested these. Hopefully in the next day or two this problem will be fixed.
