How can I get rid of this ruby warning?

Question

I have just installed ruby 1.9.1-p429 with macports. Every time I use it, it displays this error message:

$ ruby1.9 -e "puts 'hi.'"
Error loading gem paths on load path in gem_prelude

<internal:gem_prelude>:69:in `force_encoding'
<internal:gem_prelude>:69:in `set_home'

hi.

It's a bug: see bug report here

I don't know if either is available from MacPorts, but Ruby 1.9.1-p378 and 1.9.2-rc1 are both free of the problem.

If you haven't already tried it, I highly recommend rvm for multiple Ruby interpreters.
