You'll need to set GEM_PATH a lot earlier than environment.rb to have
it work - that file is loaded by the Rails initializer, which (in your
environment) appears to be coming from an installed gem. You'll want
to put the setting in either .bashrc (which is loaded for non-
interactive shells on some systems) or the Mongrel config someplace.
Settings in .bash_profile are typically only added when running an
actual login shell.
