I've now merged some of the Ruby patches that I was working on,
including ruby-tilt. It would be good if you could rebase your patches
on top of master, and check if they still work.

I also ran guix lint on the packages and got the following warnings:

gnu/packages/ruby.scm:8431:2: ruby-thin@1.7.2: line 8453 is way too long (91 characters)
gnu/packages/ruby.scm:8491:2: mailcatcher@0.6.5: can be upgraded to 0.7.1
gnu/packages/ruby.scm:8491:2: mailcatcher@0.6.5: line 8510 is way too long (92 characters)
gnu/packages/ruby.scm:8491:2: mailcatcher@0.6.5: line 8514: parentheses feel lonely, move to the previous or next line
gnu/packages/ruby.scm:8491:2: mailcatcher@0.6.5: line 8530 is way too long (96 characters)

I'll have a look at the individual patches as well.
