On x86_64, rubygems assumes that the gem installation path is in
/usr/lib64/ruby. This is problematic because all of the Mandriva ruby-*
packages install their rb files under /usr/lib/ruby regardless of
the machine architecture; rubygems consequently cannot find any of
the installed gems. This update fixes this issue.
