Without open_gem

$ gem uninstall open_gem
Successfully uninstalled open_gem-1.4.2
weppos-macair:whois weppos$ ruby-whois google.su
...

The library I'm using is the whois gem.

Does this happen with all gems you try to load or just ruby-whois?

This looks a little odd /Users/weppos/.rvm/rubies/ruby-1.9.2-p0/lib/ruby/1.9.1/rubygems.rb, you have ruby 1.9.2 installed, but then have ruby/1.9.1 rubygems, I couldn't say if that was a problem though.

In general, I'm not really supporting open_gem anymore, I would suggest trying out qwandry.

[weppos]

The reason why the path includes 1.9.1 is because Ruby core decide to not change the rubygems path.

So far, it just happens with this Gem, but I didn't have the time to run additional tests.
