Subject: Error "unrecognized option --protected" when running "gem install bluecloth"

I am running Fedora core 14 and trying to install bluecloth and am
having problems.
The first problem was with strcasecmp and I solved that my recompiling
ruby to the latest 1.8.7 version, patch 334.

Now when I try to install bluecloth I get the error:
     gem install bluecloth
     Building native extensions.  This could take a while...
     ..................

     Successfully installed bluecloth-2.0.11
     1 gem installed
     Installing ri documentation for bluecloth-2.0.11...

     unrecognized option `--protected'

If I turn on debugging I get:
. . .
    Installing ri documentation for bluecloth-2.0.11...
    Exception `GetoptLong::InvalidOption' at /usr/lib/ruby/1.8/
getoptlong.rb:403 - unrecognized option `--protected'

Any suggestions?
