seems unnecessary. Why is it there? It prints out "** Erubis 2.6.6" for many rake tasks.

Here's a patch to remove it. After removal, the version is still logged, if it's at all desirable.

This is a big enough problem for us to not switch our application
to erubis.  There's no way for us to turn this message off, and
it breaks all our application scripts which we run to produce
output files - now there'd be junk at the start.  It also results
in hundreds of annoying messages from cron when it runs the scripts
that load erubis and rails.

+1 for removal.  The patch works for me.

+1 for removal.  I submitted a bug to the erubis_rails_helper
repo and the following commit was made there.  I assume that
is the upstream repository for this?  Not sure.
