Bug #1178: circular dependency on missing ffi
http://redmine.ruby-lang.org/issues/show/1178

Author: Fred Obermann
Status: Open, Priority: High
Category: lib, Target version: 1.9.1
ruby -v: ruby 1.9.1p0 (2009-01-30 revision 21907) [i686-linux] 

On Linux version 2.6.27.10-desktop-1mnb (qateam@titan.mandriva.com) (gcc version 4.3.2 (GCC) ) #1 SMP Thu Jan 29 10:49:40 EST 2009, I downloaded, configured, made, and installed ruby 1.9.1p0 (2009-01-30 revision 21907) [i686-linux]

I run gem install and I get this:

 ERROR:  While executing gem ... (NameError)
    uninitialized constant Zlib::FFI

Now theoretically I should be able to download and install ffi with 'gem install ffi', but gem is broken without ffi
