 The `rake` that comes with MacRuby (both 0.10 and the nightly) seems to
 always print a full trace when a task raises an exception. For example, if
 I run:

 {{{
 task :blah do
   raise Exception, 'whatev'
 end
 }}}

 With MacRuby, I get:

 {{{
 rake aborted!
 whatev
 /Volumes/GitHub/Mac/blah/rakefile:2:in `block'
 /Library/Frameworks/MacRuby.framework/Versions/0.11/usr/lib/ruby/1.9.2/rake.rb:632:in

 `<main>'
 }}}

 If I run with Ruby 1.9.2, I get:

 {{{
 rake aborted!
 whatev

 Tasks: TOP => blah
 (See full trace by running task with --trace)
 }}}

 If I use that --trace argument, the output is essentially like MacRuby's.

 So in other words. MacRuby's `rake` always behaves like Ruby 1.9.2's `rake
 --trace`.

 This is pretty annoying when running tests because it's a lot of noise
 every time I have a failing test. It makes parsing (both for a tool and
 for me!) harder since I have to ignore all the useless stack trace.
