I'm using a locally compiled ruby 1.8.6, on Mac OS X 10.5.1. I installed the aws-s3 gem (.4.0), and got far enough with
s3sh to map out the script I need to write. Here's the script so far:

#!/usr/local/bin/ruby -w
require 'rubygems'
require 'aws/s3'

Remarkably, that's all it takes to blow up, thusly:

Any idea what might be the cause? I can't find any indication that it's a 10.5 issue; other gems work fine.

Thanks very much.

I just tried installing the aws-s3 gem on an OS X 10.4.10 machine,
also running locally compiled ruby 1.8.6, and a 10.4.9 machine
running the stock ruby 1.8.2. In both cases gem installed xml-simple,
builder, and mime-types as dependencies, and in both cases the
same require statement fails with the above error.
