This is from the standard ports install on FreeBSD.  I've also posted to
rubygems-developers and was able to narrow it down to ports' way of setting
this variable, i.e. it doesn't do this on Linux.  So, seeing this as a ports
problem, I created a PR (http://www.freebsd.org/cgi/query-pr.cgi?pr=103801),
and hope for a resolution soon.  In the meantime, does anyone know of a
standard rubygems way to override this or any other variable in the .gemrc
file?
