Then why would gems break on a yaml install when I tried to install rails?
The text I posted was my attempt to install yaml directly, in the hopes
of getting useful error messages. Originally, I just did this.

# gem18 install yaml --include-dependencies
INFO:  `gem install -y` is now default and will be removed
INFO:  use --ignore-dependencies to install only the gems you list
Bulk updating Gem source index for: http://gems.rubyforge.org/
ERROR:  could not find yaml locally or in a repository

It seems to me, if yaml is part of the  base install, then gems should not
try to install it. If it isn't, then it should install successfully. Either
way, it seems like
a little problem.
