Okay, fair enough. > Please rebuild the gems in your home directory yourself, possibly by > deleting them first.

My gem directories were auto-generated by Bundler, and given how rarely I use ruby, I don't think its worth the time to try and mess with the defaults. I'm perfectly willing to rm -rf ~/gems once yearly instead. You may want to mention the gem- breaking in the news file, though: many people (okay, at least this person) don't remember that native-extensions are version dependent and require rebuilds. Thanks for the quick assistance, Calum (you can close this bug, if you havent already)
