I haven't tested it yet, but looking at the patch it seems that the
compile task is now moved to a stage where it is execued as root.

This seems wrong to me.

Btw, the usage of 'pax -rwpe' in rubygem.mk keeps the group and user
id, so a build as a non root user would result in wrong user and group
names in /usr/pkg
