Hi Eric,
we've run into an issue with Unicorn's reexec, when the rails app is
using Bundler and we deploy into dated release directories. Still not
sure what the correct fix is for this, but what happens is that bundler
modifies (acutally prefixes) PATH/RUBYOPT and when you reexec unicorn
these are passed along to the new master process - and Bundler will
again append to the PATH/RUBYOBT.
This becomes more of a problem when you deploy with capistrano and
include SIGUSR2 restart of your unicorn. And effectively it will attempt
to load all Bundler vendor/bundler_gems/environment.rb for all deploys
since unicorn was first started - and if you have, say, a keep only 5
releases strategy, you will soon get failures when a bundler
environment.rb file in RUBYOPT has been shifted out.
I'm still not sure what the right solution is (to modify unicorn, the
unicorn.rb config file or to address it in bundler), but the following
patch does it brute force in unicorn and introduce the assumption that
a reexec should take the same PATH/RUBYOPT variables as the initial
invokation of the unicorn process (using a similar strategy as with
PWD):

Subject: [PATCH] filter PATH/RUBYOPT when rexec, and give new master same
values as the
original master process
