--- Comment #4 from John Marino <marino at FreeBSD.org> ---
I took a look at ${PREFIX}/lib/ruby/${ruby version}/rubygems/installer.rb

Currently the extension building is part of the installer function, and there
is no setting to make it work differently.

However, I think it would be rather straightforward to add a new argument, e.g.
"extensions-only=true" that would alter what the install routine does.

So basically the idea would be to add "install" in the do-build with the
"extension-only=true" argument set in the Mk/bsd.ruby.mk file.

I think it's possible to make rubygems behave properly.  I don't know ruby at
all but I could probably figure this out in one sitting.  I would think that
somebody that actually knows ruby can do it faster.

Who is the rubygem guru?  or core team members?
