Update to x10-cm17a gem for 1.9.1

Ruby
1

I didn’t find a good way to pass this patch along to those that are
maintaining the module for x10-cm17a gem. I suspect since there
hasn’t been any activity on it for quite sometime, that there is
currently no interest.

On the off chance that there is or someone wants to use this module in
1.9.1, you can apply this patch:

Someone that knows ruby better might have a more elegant solution, but
this one works for me.
