I believe you want to comment on this ticket:

However, I'm thinking that installing to /usr/local/bin instead only solves 
overwriting the commands. You still have to deal with which directory comes 
first in your $PATH.

Personally, I use rvm to solve this problem. However, it comes with its own set 
of trade-offs.
