After upgrading to 1.8.8 from 1.8.7 and trying to install a gem, you get the following error:
ERROR: While executing gem ... (ArgumentError)

wrong number of arguments (2 for 1)

    Hello,

    When reporting problems, please include the complete output of gem env and also the complete output of the same gem command you executed, but with --debug -V options, so:

    gem install rails

    Turns into:

    gem install rails --debug -V

    Suggested is either you attach these files or use services like pastie.org or gist.github.com

    Help us help you better.

    I rejected the github issue as the ZLib feature has existed since Ruby 1.9.1p0.

    I'll bring up the JRuby issue you filed at http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/JRUBY-6009 in hopes of getting it fixed faster.
