There is a slight difference between ruby-pkg-tools and gem2deb. While
ruby-pkg-tools called CDBS and could modify most things in how CDBS
operates, gem2deb does not call debhelper, but is called by it. I don't
see a way for dh_ruby to influence the other debhelper programs, except
perhaps by generating a debian/rules with lots of override_dh_* targets,
which seems dirty to me.

Of course, if anyone comes up with an idea of how to implement this on
the gem2deb side, we will totally consider it.
