   I tracked this down to an issue with the Rspec 2.6.0.rc2 gemspec. Rubygems 1.3.7 simply can't handle the lines that look like this:

   s.add_runtime_dependency(%q<rspec-core>, ["#<YAML::Syck::DefaultKey:0x1069613b8> 2.6.0.rc3"])
   

   When it tries to parse that gemspec, Rubygems 1.3.7 just explodes.

   I think this is fixed in a latest version of the rspec betas...if not please open this back up!
