Subject: RUBYLIB="" causes load problems in 1.7.3


Has this been fixed in more recent releases? I have 2002-10-30.

$ export RUBYLIB=""

It's ok in 1.6.7:

$ ruby-1.6.7 -r ftools -e 'p $:'
["", "/usr/local/lib/ruby/site_ruby/1.6", 
"/usr/local/lib/ruby/site_ruby/1.6/i686-linux", 
"/usr/local/lib/ruby/site_ruby", "/usr/local/lib/ruby/1.6", 
"/usr/local/lib/ruby/1.6/i686-linux", "."]

But in 1.7.3...

$ ruby -r ftools -e 'p $:'
ruby: No such file to load -- ftools (LoadError)

$ ruby -e 'p $:'
["", "/usr/local/lib/ruby/site_ruby/1.7", 
"/usr/local/lib/ruby/site_ruby/1.7/i686-linux", 
"/usr/local/lib/ruby/site_ruby", "/usr/local/lib/ruby/1.7", 
"/usr/local/lib/ruby/1.7/i686-linux", "."]
