~/Library/Frameworks is there for users who don't have the  
administrative powers to install to /Library/Frameworks, so it's a  
good place to check.  Presumably the user would also be installing  
Ruby within their own space as well, so I'm not sure that the binary  
not working for other users would be particularly important in that  
case.
