I rememeber a few months ago having problems on Leopard when installing a
gem. The progress bar hung and I came back after a while and it was still
stuck. If I remember correctly, after a few times it just worked and the gem
was there (can't remember which gem it was). Not sure if this is the problem
you guys are having,
