With a recent ruby-gnome2 (0.15.0), the simple program:

require ‘gtk2’  
puts “hello world”

will break on line one if it is called with an argument; with argument  
–foo, it breaks with:

/usr/lib/ruby/site\_ruby/1.8/gtk2.rb:13:in `init’: Unknown option --foo  
(RuntimeError)  
from /usr/lib/ruby/site\_ruby/1.8/gtk2.rb:13  
from tgtk.rb:1

how to fix? thanks!
