Heroku master push error with Xcode dependencies?

I am trying to push my rails app to heroku and there is a problem with installing the xcodeproj gem. After running git push heroku master, dependencies are installed until it gets here:

   Installing xcodeproj (0.6.0)
   Gem::Installer::ExtensionBuildError: ERROR: Failed to build gem native extension.
   /usr/local/bin/ruby extconf.rb

   CoreFoundation is needed to build the Xcodeproj C extension.
   *** extconf.rb failed ***
   Could not create Makefile due to some reason, probably lack of
   necessary libraries and/or headers.  Check the mkmf.log file for more

I have looked for errors similar to this - and many people have gotten this error when installing Cocoapods. I installed cocoapods with these dependencies no problem, the command line tool is working, and I've already started working in xcode (4.6.2). I am running latest RVM 1.19.6 and rails 3.2.13

It's not a problem with the database- I have production 'pg' - and I've already deployed to Heroku - the problem is something within the xcode/cocoapods dependency. Have you heard of any incompatibility between heroku and any of this? I can't figure I need to push the rails app to link up the json files with RestKit etc. This is the only thing holding me up before moving to xcode so I really want to solve this. Any help you can offer would be greatly appreciated!

This will probably be hard to solve: the line checking for CoreFoundation... no tells me that it probably isn't portable to Linux (which Heroku is ultimately running): it depends on Apple's CoreFoundation library. Really clever tinkering might be able to build it using either GNUStep's Objective C toolchain or (less likely) even via opencflite, but that'd probably be a pretty uphill battle.

Although being able to generate your XCode project 'in the cloud' like that certainly would be nifty! But something akin to MacinCloud is probably a way easier option.
