RubyGems is not designed for arbitrary code execution, which will be a security concern.
Except it already does by letting a developer specify a Rakefile in spec.extensions. That's how I hacked around RubyGems to correctly install dependent dlls into the lib directory.
Not to mention the fact that once I have my gem installed, it can pretty much do what it wants.
