    Mac OS X Lion is not yet released. I’ve read reports of several bugs in Lion GM (among which even as severe as kernel panics), this is probably also a Lion (or Xcode 4.2) bug, and if not, it’s a Ruby bug. RVM is certainly not the cause, as your output indicates the compiled Ruby is crashing.

    I would recommend that you wait until Lion is released.

    Edit: Now that Lion and Xcode 4.1 is released, I see the issue has been fixed.
