I'll look into it today and report back here.

I'm not sure the best/easiest way to test this.

After I posted I started thinking that maybe I had the Ruby
version of eruby instead of the C version (eruby vs erb,
I can never remember which is which).

This is what I have.

  <IfModule mod_ruby.c>
  RubyRequire apache/eruby-run
  # # handle *.rbx as eruby files.
  <Files *.rhtml>
    SetHandler ruby-object
    RubyHandler Apache::ERubyRun.instance
  </Files>
  </IfModule>

Is this the C version?
