Description

I am occasionally getting a segfault error when using cucumber 0.6.2 with latest ruby trunk (26744) in Mac OS X 10.6.1. It is happening about 25% of the time I run the cucumber command. Here's the full error:

http://gist.github.com/312461#file_cucumber_segfault

From that error it looks like it is happening when calling the "gem" method and RubyGems is trying to raise an error when it can't find the gem. This is the line in cucumber (ansicolor.rb).

  gem 'genki-ruby-terminfo'

I tried to duplicate this by executing that line in irb. I get a Gem::LoadError saying the gem doesn't exist but never a segfault there.

Sorry if this isn't the right place to post this ticket.
