There is a shell limitation: inability to use shell scripts in shebang lines, and since JRuby's launcher is (was) shell-based, that breaks things. The good news is that JRuby now has native launcher (for windows, linux, macos), and using it instead of shell launcher would allow to put it in shebang lines with no problem.

Note that this only seemed to happen on Linux (not OSX) And I fixed it by replacing the line at the top of the jgem script from:

#!/mnt/java/jruby-1.4.0/bin/jruby

to

#!/usr/bin/env jruby

Given that line 8 in the jgem script is the first line of ruby (the rest are comments/blanks) I'd say something broke (j)ruby in your shell.

Try starting a new shell session and see if it's just transient.

Try these:

jruby -v

jirb

etc...
