 sudo rake install fails on one of my machines:


 {{{
 ./miniruby instruby.rb --make="/usr/bin/make" --dest-dir=""
 --extout=".ext" --mflags=""
 --make-flags="" --data-mode=0644 --prog-mode=0755 --installed-list
 .installed.list
 --mantype="doc" --sym-dest-dir="/usr/local"
 given string has unrecognized encoding (ArgumentError)
 rake aborted!
 Command failed with status (1): [./miniruby instruby.rb
 --make="/usr/bin/ma...]

 }}}

 I've tracked the problem down to
 {{{val.gsub!(/\$\$|\$\(([^()]+)\)|\$\{([^{}]+)\}/) do}}} in rbconfig.rb,
 where it throws the exception on the first argument ( {{{val =
 "$(datarootdir)/doc/$(PACKAGE)}}}" ).

 MacRuby-trunk svn revision 2359
 Mac OS X 10.5.8
 rake, version 0.8.7
 MacBookPro2,1

 On another machine (MacBook Air) it doesn't fail and installs OK.

 Am I doing something wrong? Please let me know if you need more
 information.
