>Description:
rubygems allows for nonprivileged users to use a gems repository in their home directory.  When installing a gem that compiles an extension, the install of this compiled part fails because the CONFIG["INSTALL"] in rbconfig.rb is set to "/usr/bin/install -c -o root -g wheel".  An unprivileged user can obviously not install anything as root, so the install fails.
>How-To-Repeat:
- install ruby and rubygems from ports.
- setup a local gem repository as an unprivileged user.
- install any gem that compiles an extension (mongrel, hpricot, etc.)

>Fix:
set CONFIG["INSTALL"] = '/usr/bin/install -c' in rbconfig.rb
