Subject: Gems installed to $HOME not recognized

I'm using Ruby 1.9, Ubuntu (I don't have the following problem with my
Ruby 1.8).

For some reason, Ruby 1.9 doesn't see gems I install to $HOME. It only
sees gems I install as root.

In other words, if I do the following...

  $ gem1.9.1 install haml

...the gem gets installed in ~/.gem/ruby/1.9.1/gems/haml-2.2.22, and
when I do 'require "haml"' ruby says there's no such file to load.

On the other hand, when I do....

  $ sudo gem1.9.1 install haml

...the gem gets installed in /var/lib/gems/1.9.1/gems/haml-2.2.22, and
doing 'require "haml"' works.

I temporarily solved the problem by symlinking /var/lib/gems/1.9.1 to
~/.gem/ruby/1.9.1.

My question:

How can i make Ruby 1.9 see the gems installed at ~/.gem/ruby/1.9.1 ?
