Subject: rubygems "index" broken

I recently upgraded rails from 1.2.2 to 1.2.3 with (I believe) this  
command:

gem install rails --system

Somehow this has caused gem to ignore most of my previously installed  
gems.

THe directory /usr/local/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems contains:

RedCloth-3.0.4                  actionwebservice-1.1.2           
acts_as_searchable-0.1.0        mongrel-0.3.13.3                 
rails-1.1.2                     sources-0.0.1
actionmailer-1.2.1              actionwebservice-1.1.4           
capistrano-1.1.0                mongrel_cluster-0.2.0            
rails-1.1.4
actionmailer-1.2.3              activerecord-1.14.2              
daemons-1.0.1                   needle-1.3.0                     
rake-0.7.1
actionpack-1.12.1               activerecord-1.14.3              
fixrbconfig-1.2                 net-sftp-1.1.0                   
rcss-0.3.1
actionpack-1.12.3               activesupport-1.3.1              
gem_plugin-0.2.1                net-ssh-1.0.9                    
rmagick-1.13.0


However, gem list only shows these:

*** LOCAL GEMS ***

actionmailer (1.3.3)

actionpack (1.13.3)

actionwebservice (1.2.3)

activerecord (1.15.3)

activesupport (1.4.2)

hpricot (0.6)

rails (1.2.3)

rake (0.7.3)

rfacebook (0.7.1)

sources (0.0.1)


It was a huge hassle to get some of these installed on OSX (like  
rmagick) and I'd rather not have to re-do them.

How can I fix this?
