/usr/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/mongrel-1.1.5/ext/http11/http11.so
  /usr/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/mongrel-1.1.5/lib/http11.so

  /usr/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/thin-0.8.1/lib/thin_parser.so

I noticed this today, it seems to be valid for a lot of gems. One more reason to get rid of them for sure.

ebuild fixing double so files

Completely rewritten the ebuild, which is now built from git source instead of gem. I haven't tested the package in use.
Also this strip warning at the end of the installation:

strip: i686-pc-linux-gnu-strip --strip-unneeded -R .comment
   usr/lib/ruby/site_ruby/1.8/thin/ext/thin_parser/parser.o
   usr/lib/ruby/site_ruby/1.8/thin/ext/thin_parser/thin.o
   usr/lib/ruby/site_ruby/1.8/thin/ext/thin_parser/thin_parser.so

Okay, don't install from git sources. Will change on the next Gentoo Bugday.

I'm closing this as WONTFIX since we won't be fixing this for gems.eclass-based ebuilds. Instead please use ruby-fakegem which makes it a lot easier to install the right .so file once.
