Ruby 1.8 was EOL'd about 2.5 years ago, so in theory everyone should be
long off of it. In practice, well, I thought I'd ask before making any
releases that change that.

Sidenote: does dropping supported for a long-EOLd version of the software
constitute a major version change under SemVer? None of the public
interfaces would change (it's a performance-focused release I'm
considering).
