RubyGems Patch

I finally tracked down a bug that was causing an error when trying to
use rubygems and rake. When a .gemspec was being read and evaluated to
create a Gem::Specification instance, it was not creating a Gem::Version
object properly. Turns out that the Version.create() method was checking
to see if the parameter responds_to? :version. Somewhere along the line,
the String class added a version method - which caused the error.

Tomas - The problem seems to be coming from rubygems/custom_required.rb.
It redefines Kernel.required() and is not re-throwing the error
properly:

This works:

module Kernel
alias gem_original_require require # :nodoc:

def require(path) # :nodoc:
gem_original_require path
end
end # module Kernel

but this doesn’t:

module Kernel
alias gem_original_require require # :nodoc:

def require(path) # :nodoc:
gem_original_require path
rescue LoadError => load_error
raise load_error
end
end # module Kernel

Tomas - Thanks for the advice. However, it is still not working as
expected. When I run this ruby script:

require ‘rubygems’
require ‘rake’

puts $LOAD_PATH

It give me this output:

C:\temp>ir -D t.rb

But the error is actually coming from deep inside the rubygems library

that I’m going to fix soon.

Michael - Thanks for the quick response, but that’s not quite what I
meant. When I run Ruby and get an error, I get the complete stack trace
of the Ruby code:

Yes, I found the same thing yesterday :). The patch I submitted for
review a few hours ago contains a fix for this.
