Is anybody else seeing a segfault on hpricot on OSX 10.6 and Ruby 1.9.1?

I’ve installed ruby with MacPorts.

Here’s the error:

> /opt/local/lib/ruby1.9/gems/1.9.1/gems/hpricot-0.8.1/lib/  
> fast\_xs.bundle: [BUG] Segmentation fault  
> ruby 1.8.7 (2008-08-11 patchlevel 72) [universal-darwin10.0]
> 
> Abort trap

ruby -v:  
ruby 1.9.1p243 (2009-07-16 revision 24175) [i386-darwin10]

OSX comes with a default install of ruby 1.8.7, in a completely  
seperate directory structure.

All my other gems etc are compiling correctly… I agree somehow the  
hpricot compilier seems to find the wrong version of ruby… to  
compile against.

Just wondering if anybody else has since this, and if so is there a  
‘fix’?
