I've noticed this distrust in a lot of people.  Can't see any reason for 
it myself.  Apple's Ruby has always worked fine for me.  I'll be 
installing 1.9.2 and RVM at some point, but until then I'll save my 
effort and disk space and not build my own Ruby.  If that costs me geek 
brownie points, so be it. :D.

Never seen that.  Find and fix the problem instead of just "distrusting" 
your development environment.

Again: Apple's Ruby is perfectly trustworthy.  If it's not working for 
you, the problem is most likely elsewhere (perhaps a reinstallation of 
Apple's dev tools is in order...).

Best,
