Way of checking rack version doesn't work with Debian rack package

#4103

In rails/actionpack/lib/action_controller.rb, Rails checks the version of rack as follows:

gem 'rack', '~> 1.0.1'

I have the Debian package librack-ruby1.8 installed, which meets that version requirement. It would seem that the "gem" command requires that I have a gem installed, which I don't have, and don't want to have (due to organisational policy as to how to manage software package).

Perhaps it could check the dependency by requiring rack, then introspecting into it to check its version?
