Comment(by kimuraw@…):

 That error means ruby(miniruby) do not allow "-I" option under egid !=
 gid.

 see ruby.c
 {{{
 static void
 forbid_setid(s)
     const char *s;
 {
     if (euid != uid)
         rb_raise(rb_eSecurityError, "no %s allowed while running setuid",
 s);
     if (egid != gid)
         rb_raise(rb_eSecurityError, "no %s allowed while running setgid",
 s);
     if (rb_safe_level() > 0)
         rb_raise(rb_eSecurityError, "no %s allowed in tainted mode", s);
 }
 }}}

 macports trunk has dropPrivileges and elevateToRoot mechanism.
 I think this tiket maybe for macports base componet, not ruby ports...
