Require 'rubygems' gives llformed requirement [">= 0"] (ArgumentError)

Hello,

When I try to require ‘rubygems’ in IronRuby on mono (OSX) I get the
following error

mono ir.exe -e “require ‘rubygems’”

/Library/Frameworks/Mono.framework/Versions/2.10.1/lib/ironruby/bin/…/Lib/ruby/1.9.1/rubygems/requirement.rb:72:in

I’ve tried this with the IronRuby that ships with mono 2.10 binaries for
OSX and I’ve also built IronRuby v1.1.2 and v1.1.3 from source. I get
the same error in all three versions. Has anyone else experience this
and knows what the issue might be?

This appears to be a result of the following mono bug:
https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=541823

The specific issue is that the regex:
(?-six:\A[\s](=|!=|>|<|>=|<=|~>)?[\s]([0-9]+(.[0-9a-zA-Z]+))[\s]\z)
Does not match “>= 0” in mono but does match on .NET

This is a mono bug, not an ironruby bug.

FWIW, the issue only appears to manifest itself when later sequences
in a ‘|’ group are substrings of earlier squences. So, for instance
if you move |>|< to the end of the group it appears to work:
(?-six:\A[\s](=|!=|>=|<=|~>|>|<)?[\s]([0-9]+(.[0-9a-zA-Z]+))[\s]\z)

Editing the rubygems/requirement.rb file as follows allows rubygems to
load:

diff --git a/Languages/Ruby/StdLib/ruby/1.9.1/rubygems/requirement.rb
b/Languages/Ruby/StdLib/ruby/1.9.1/rubygems/requirement.

No promises on the issue not creeping up down the road though…
