[rvm] global gemset & 1.8.7-head vs. 1.8.7-p334.

Problem #1: New rvm gemset does not recognize Bundler.
Solution: Download Bundler into global gemset, then run ‘bundle install’.

Problem #2: When running rake, ruby-1.8.7-head throws private method chomp error.
Solution: Issues known in ruby-1.8.7-head. Revert to ruby-1.8.7-p334.

Here are the results via Gist:
