Stop right there.

There is no Mongrel compatible with Ruby 1.9.0.
Currently there is no release plan about it, but we are working on
this subject.
Official word: unsupported.

I guess you will try to install rails after mongrel, so I suggest to
get back to 1.8.6 and stick there.

1.9.0 is a development release.
