Ok, I had the same problem and have just fixed it.

What was happening was that it couldn't find rbconfig.rb. On my
computer, this is located in:
/usr/local/lib/ruby/1.8/i686-darwin8.9.1

but it was looking for it one directory up.

so from /usr/local/lib/ruby/1.8/  go and put a symlink in thus:
sudo ln -s i686-darwin8.9.1/rbconfig.rb rbconfig.rb

and it all worked fine from then on.

Cheers,
Taryn
