Yes, we can actually do that.  We're discussing the possibility of making
lang/ruby19 to depend on ruby-gems and rake, thus having ruby19 installation
automatically install rake and gem as well.  But nobody did that yet.

I agree tought that should have been done at the moment the gem binary
was dropped from ruby19, but I think we just forgot about this at the
end.
