You may try this approach:

gem install --ignore-dependencies heroku  
gem install json_pure

You cannot install heroku because it depends on json gem, and by default non pure json gem gets installed and compilation fails. But if you manually install pure json gem it should work. At least it works for me, but my steps were a bit different:

gem install heroku
#find and delete  json gem installed incompletely
gem install json_pure
gem install --ignore-dependencies heroku
