Summary: --platform is ignored

Initial Comment:
Currently with this command:
gem install sys-proctable --platform=non-existent-platform

if the platform doesn't exist it defaults back to ruby--essentially ignoring --platform.  I was surprised to not receive at warning that platform was being ignored.
Thank you for your consideration.
