Don't know if this will be any help, but here's mine, using the standard
ruby that is present on Leopard already:

  - RUBYGEMS VERSION: 1.2.0
  - RUBY VERSION: 1.8.6 (2008-03-03 patchlevel 114)
[universal-darwin9.0]
  - INSTALLATION DIRECTORY: /Library/Ruby/Gems/1.8
  - RUBY EXECUTABLE:
/System/Library/Frameworks/Ruby.framework/Versions/1.8/usr/bin/ruby
  - EXECUTABLE DIRECTORY: /usr/bin
  - RUBYGEMS PLATFORMS:
    - ruby
    - universal-darwin-9
  - GEM PATHS:
     - /Library/Ruby/Gems/1.8
     -
/System/Library/Frameworks/Ruby.framework/Versions/1.8/usr/lib/ruby/gems
/1.8
