I don't use gemsets - when using a bundler enabled project it won't let you 
load a gem that's not in the Gemfile. If I did need to blow away my ruby 
install that's only one command with rbenv (and then run bundler to reinstall 
gems). "Works on my machine" problems are handled by a CI server (which is an 
automatically built image, built using the same process that builds our 
production images)

There is some value in getting new developers setup (there are a few non ruby 
related dependencies in our app on top of rails) but I've never really had the 
problems you describe.
