 The [http://rubygems.org/gems/xml-object xml-object] gem throws an
 exception on MacRuby. The same code works on MRI 1.9.2. A simple example:

 {{{
 $ macgem install xml-object
 $ macirb
...
require "rubygems"
 require "open-uri"
 require "xml-object"
 o=XMLObject.new(open("http://www.w3schools.com/xml/simple.xml"))
