  1. Disregard mkrf_conf.rb as a requirement for DevKit 

    It has become a common trick to use an extension configure script named `mkrf_conf.rb` to install conditional dependencies via Gem::DependencyInstaller when installing a gem.

cf. http://en.wikibooks.org/wiki/Ruby_Programming/RubyGems#How_to_install_different_versions_of_gems_depending_on_which_version_of_ruby_the_installee_is_using

A `mkrf_conf.rb` script is expected to generate a `Rakefile` which is later run by rake(1), and that doesn't necessarily require build tools like make(1), C compiler, etc.
