OK, I’m at the end of my tether with this. There are a few similar questions but they all refer to therubyracer 0.10, and they mostly conclude that the problem can be fixed by upgrading to 0.12.
I’m having similar problems, but when I use 0.12.
Similar questions
I’m having problems using ‘standard’ (xcode?) gcc, and both apple-gcc42 and gcc from homebrew. I’ve tried both --with-system-v8 and --without-system-v8, and again, no dice.
Here’s some logs:

OK. So to fix the issues with therubyracer 0.10, some people recommend brew installing v8, then telling rubygems to use system v8. Let’s see what happens!
