summary
Collects and attempts to run precompiled and rebuilt Rubies on vintage systems, succeeds on some (Haiku ships Ruby 3.2) and fails on many because modern toolchains or runtimes are missing, notably EMX runtime missing for OS/2 and obscure floppy-based devkits; documents that Ruby 1.8 compatibility shims removed in 1.9 block portability, shows concrete builds on X68000/PC-98/DOS variants where possible, measures memory and VM differences (32-bit vs 64-bit pointer bloat), and provides source, binaries and failed-toolchain diagnostics.
