There are still a number of ports that don't build or work with 2.2. I'd have to test again to give you exact numbers, but it was more than a handfull of rubygem- and ruby- ports that didn't build. Also, sysutils/puppet, which is quite important to many users, doesn't support Ruby 2.2 yet (puppet 4.0 will). Breaking puppet by default would be far from ideal. Switching to 2.2 as default locally and testing is encouraged. :) Stevehelp
