ruby19@1.9.1-p0 Bug #1163 - gem_prelude raise NoMethodError

[jonbrenner@…]

Ruby 1.9.1-p0 has a known bug in which an incorrect error breaks some code, notably Rails 2.3.2 generators. The attached portfile diff and patch corrects the issue.

Official ruby issue: ​http://redmine.ruby-lang.org/issues/show/1163

I understand that it can be very annoying if something like this breaks the dominant web framework, but it is not obvious to me that this is a "known bug' in the sense that it has been acknowledged. This is what the ruby redmine entry looks like when you auto-translate it from japanese:

Basically rubygems, part of standard library breaks some rails behaviour. You could also come to the conclusion, that this is a rails bug introduced by an incompatible change in stdlib. Anyway. I'll look for the rails bug tracker and see what it says.

I cannot find this problem in the rails bug tracker, and I think it has to be discussed there first. Please link if you know where it is.
