This incompatibility makes `make install` to be failed because the current gem doesn't separate build, source and install directories. This is reported as a bug of bigdecimal's gemspec in #7344 firstly, but Tadashi Saito pointed out it also can be reproduced in other gems including extension libraries, such as decimal.gem. I think this incompatibility will make gem-developers to be in trouble after ruby-2.0 is released. So this should be resolved before ruby-2.0 is released. -- http://bugs.ruby-lang.org/
