Summary: Manual states gemrc is looked up in home directory only whereas 
/etc/gemrc is also consulted

Initial Comment:
Documentation here: http://docs.rubygems.org/read/chapter/11 states:

gem looks for a configuration file .gemrc in your home directory, although you 
can specify another file on the command-line if you wish (with the —config-file 
modifier). Only one configuration file will be processed: the rightmost one on 
the command-line, or the default $HOME/.gemrc, or none at all.

In actuality, configuration may be taken from /etc/gemrc if it exists.
