Sebastien,

I filed an ITP for libfastthread-ruby a couple of months ago and that
ITP started a discussion about the "serious bugs" in Ruby. See 

http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=472702

for a discussion about this. I came to the conclusion that we did not
need to package up libfastthread-ruby.

Cheers,
