I built ruby from source in /usr/local.  Ruby installed two directories, 
/usr/local/lib/ruby and /usr/local/include/ruby-1.9.1:

[root/usr/local/lib/ruby] find -name iconv.*
./1.9.1/x86_64-linux/iconv.so
[root/usr/local/include] cd ../include/ruby-1.9.1/
[root/usr/local/include/ruby-1.9.1] find -name iconv.*
[root/usr/local/include/ruby-1.9.1]

[root~] echo $RUBYOPT

[root~] echo $RUBLIB

Notice the blank lines.  I also grepped through the 3700+ html pages in 
the API and did find a single reference to RUBYOPT or RUBLIB.

What's the deal guy?  Am I supposed to take you seriously?
