The first two line of extract.error.log is follows.

| [2009-12-16 14:33:29] tar xzf
/home/luis/.rvm/archives/ruby-1.8.7-p248.tar.gz -C /home/luis/.rvm/src
| tar: ruby-1.8.7-p248/bin: time stamp 2009-12-24 06:37:32 is
662642.859822642 s in the future

I guess your clock shows 2009-12-16.

% ruby -e 'p Time.local(2009,12,24,6,37,32) - 662642.859822642'
2009-12-16 14:33:29 +0900

I think Ruby 1.8.7 p248 is not released before 2009-12-16.
