Summary: Gem.default_bindir is hardcoded on Mac
Initial Comment:
The following code in defaults.rb means `gem --bindir /foo/bin` won't work on
OS X:
def self.default_bindir
if defined? RUBY_FRAMEWORK_VERSION then # mac framework support
'/usr/bin'
else # generic install
ConfigMap[:bindir]
end
end
It also means setting: `gem: --bindir /foo/bin` in .gemrc doesn't work.

Message:
This is only the default (thus the name "default_bindir"). The override works
fine for me.
$ gem install rake -i ~/tmp/gems --no-rdoc --no-ri -n ~/tmp/bin
Successfully installed rake-0.8.7

$ ls ~/tmp/bin/
