Hi all
I'm getting a massive amount of gemspec warnings to STDERR in Ruby 1.9.1
whenever 'rubygems/specification' gets required.  The error I'm seeing is:

WARNING:  #<NoMethodError: undefined method `>' for nil:NilClass>
WARNING:  Invalid .gemspec format in
'/Users/rsanheim/.gem/ruby/1.9.1/specifications/rake-0.8.7.gemspec'

This is happening for just about any gem I install under 1.9, so I don't
think its an issue specific to any one gem.  I *only* see the warnings if I
require rubygems/specification -- I can use gems and require rubygems
without the issue.

I've included full output of the issue on pastie, because the log is pretty
long, as gems spits out the full gemspec along side the warnings:

http://pastie.org/608299

Note that the log is from Leopard, but I've also seen the issue on Ubuntu
8.10.

Does this look like something I'm installing wrong, or should I file an
issue against rubygems?

Thanks,
Rob
