[patch] Problems with getting version number for java platform gems

I've a more generic solution. Gem version is determined by a regexp on the directory name. All strings before the version are considered as the name of the gem, after the version as the platform. This approach should also cover e.g. redcloth-x.x.x-universal-java.

Final patch.

This fails for prerelease gems (versions like 1.0.1.pre). I don't recall whether those allow dashes in the string part or not, but you may want to check it out.

The affected files were removed from the code base, so I guess this ticket is no longer valid ?
