Subject: rubygem setup.rb failing

I'm having to setup multiple machines, and I've got a new problem (at
least each time my problem is new ... I'm not repeating the old ones)

I've compiled ruby and installed it - I've put it into /usr/local/bin,
if that's a problem, I can redo it to whereever. Note that I didn't see
any errors in the ruby compile / install

Next was an attempt to install rubygems. I ran
   ruby setup.rb

from the directory with rubygems. It starts out OK, then I get
-------------------------
/usr/local/lib/ruby/1.8/i686-linux/syck.so:
/usr/local/lib/ruby/1.8/i686-linux/syck.so: undefined symbol:
__stack_chk_fail_local - /usr/local/lib/ruby/1.8/i686-linux/syck.so
(LoadError)

        from setup.rb:705:in `invoke'
        from setup.rb:674:in `invoke'
        from setup.rb:1352
------------------------------------------

Either I'm missing something - or my ruby install wasn't as clean as it
looked. I looked at the source, and I thought that all I needed to do
was install the yaml and syck files onto the machine (I'm running
kubuntu) - but that didn't seem to do any good.

Would someone be so kind as to help here.

Thanks in advance
