Subject: Looking at Rails for the first time...

I'm trying to create my first ever rails application.. following as 
closely as possible the instructions in the tutorial.  I've created a 
trivial model and controller using script/generate and the tutorial 
recommends to run rake.  When I run rake, it reports an error (which 
doesn't mean much to me) :

$ rake
/usr/lib/ruby/site_ruby/1.8/rake.rb:658:in `private': undefined method 
`have_option?' for class `Object' (NameError)
        from /usr/lib/ruby/site_ruby/1.8/rake.rb:658
        from /usr/lib/ruby/site_ruby/1.8/rake.rb:657
        from /usr/bin/rake:3

What does this mean?  Is this a bug in rake as the error message 
suggests, or something subtle I've done wrongly in attempting to use Rails?
