thanks, matt:

you were right.  i solved it by downgrading ruby to

ruby 1.8.6 (2008-08-11 patchlevel 287) [i386-freebsd6]

which was accomplished with

[EMAIL PROTECTED] % sudo portupgrade -f ruby # technically, a downgrade,
but the ports tree is at 1.8.6 now

along the way to merbal health, i observed a couple of other quirks
which i should point out.

first, "Could not find RubyGem do_sqlite3"

[EMAIL PROTECTED] % which sqlite3
/usr/local/bin/sqlite3

[EMAIL PROTECTED] % sudo gem install do_sqlite3
Building native extensions.  This could take a while...
ERROR:  Error installing do_sqlite3:
        ERROR: Failed to build gem native extension.

/usr/local/bin/ruby18 extconf.rb install do_sqlite3
checking for sqlite3.h... no
*** 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
details.  You may need configuration options.

Provided configuration options:
        --with-opt-dir
        --without-opt-dir
        --with-opt-include
        --without-opt-include=${opt-dir}/include
        --with-opt-lib
        --without-opt-lib=${opt-dir}/lib
        --with-make-prog
        --without-make-prog
        --srcdir=.
        --curdir
        --ruby=/usr/local/bin/ruby18
        --with-sqlite3-dir
        --without-sqlite3-dir
        --with-sqlite3-include
        --without-sqlite3-include=${sqlite3-dir}/include
        --with-sqlite3-lib
        --without-sqlite3-lib=${sqlite3-dir}/lib

interestingly, when i download the do_sqlite3 file from this google
group and install as

[EMAIL PROTECTED] % sudo gem install do_sqlite3-0.9.7-x86-mingw32.gem

then instead of "Could not find RubyGem do_sqlite3" i get a gem
version mismatch:

"RubyGem version error: do_sqlite3(0.9.7 not ~> 0.9.9)
(Gem::LoadError)"

a subsequent "sudo gem update do_sqlite3" fails as above.

at this point, the only thing that will let my merb come up is to
change config/init.rb to read

use_orm: sequel
instead of
use_orm: datamapper
