Hi, I’m getting this when I try to gem install the treetop gem:

benjohn # sudo gem install polyglot

Not really a problem with treetop, except that it relies on facets,  
and facets seems to be AWOL:

Ah, thanks - I dug a little deeper after posting (not so much dug, more  
brushed the light layer of sand aside and saw what I should have seen  
before asking), and sussed out the same.

So, anyone know what’s up with the facets gem (the below happens for me  
on OS X too)? …
