Passenger not compatible with rails < 1.1

What steps will reproduce the problem? 1. Use Rails 1.0.0 (in my case)
2. Start app
3. See it complain about VERSION What is the expected output? What do you see instead? No worka What version of the product are you using? On what operating system? 1.0.3, Linux Please provide any additional information below. Since Rails::VERSION was named Rails::Version in < 1.1, and also defined in
another place, to have passenger work, it must handle that. It seems to
work with the following code in framework_spawner.rb:266

begin
  if ::Rails::VERSION::MAJOR >= 2
    require 'active_resource'
  else
    require 'action_web_service'
  end
# Means rails < 1.1
rescue NameError
  require 'action_web_service'
end

Maybe solving it a bit more elegantly by actually looking for
Rails::Version would be nicer, but this worked for me

Also, rails < 1.1 doesnt have the ruby-version-check rb which throws errors when the
framework spawner loads it through gems, since it tries to activate a newer rails to
require that particular file.

Could you post a patch that handles ruby-version-check too? Thanks.

begin
if ::Rails::VERSION::MAJOR >= 2
require 'active_resource'
else
require 'action_web_service'
end
require 'ruby-version-check'
# Means rails < 1.1
rescue NameError
require 'action_web_service'
end

and remove the ruby-version-check from the code above.

That should work, i guess, but I dont know, and i cant test it since i am on
vacation in Thailand right now. :)
