Ruby 2.1.2 is released

Is there anything particularly notable about this release? The release notes make it sound quite minor, with a small handful of bug fixes.

These point releases are what the patch (-pNNN) versions used to be, so they are minor.

There are some GC bug fixes that address some edge cases.

It's more than just an edge case -- you're very likely to encounter the bugs that were fixed if you allocate large objects in a rails request handler. You should upgrade.
