Subject: SocketError: getaddrinfo: nodename nor servname provided, or

I'm trying to use Net/Http and am getting the following error:

SocketError: getaddrinfo: nodename nor servname provided, or not known

I'm on Mac OS X, Leopard, check out my ruby version/gem env below.

Also, I double checked my etc/hosts and I do see an entry for
localhost/127.0.0.1 there.  Seems like this is a Leopard issue?
