I went to download a fresh copy of Ruby the other day, and noticed that they quietly released 1.8.7 and are promoting it as the recommended install now. I haven’t heard much about its compatibility with Rails, but I was curious about the performance enhancements backported from 1.9. So, I downloaded it … and …. bam!
A little Googling, and I discover that there is a subsequent patchlevel that addresses this problem. I downloaded 1.8.7-p17 and it seems to get past this one. To compile and install on my Mac:

Hi Nate,
Thanks for blogging this. I just ran into the exact same problem and your solution worked and saved me some frustration.

Just wanted to add my thanks. Mind if I asked how you figured this out? A week ago, all I could find by Googling was a few posts by people who thought the problem was with their plugins.
