The instructions provided on the site _should_ install buildr somewhere on
the PATH (during "gem install buildr").  I don't know why they don't, or
whether this only happens in some environments.

(Last time I installed buildr on my Ubuntu 10.4 system, it worked fine)

'gem install buildr' is the recommended way for those who want an easy
install.  Installing from source involves more steps and requires additional
environment dependencies.
