Gemfile causes torquebox env variables to come up empty

Question

I think I've found a bug in torquebox. For some reason, if I "gem install torquebox" and then add a "gem 'torquebox'" line to my Gemfile, "torquebox env" stops working properly. This is very easy to reproduce, so if anyone knows what's going on please let me know:

To reproduce the bug, let's create a new gemset and install torquebox-server

$ rvm use jruby-1.6.7.2
$ rvm gemset create test
$ mkdir torquetest
$ cd torquetest
$ rvm use jruby-1.6.7.2@test

Let me pause for a moment to show you what's in my jruby-1.6.7.2@global, in case that matters:

$ ls ~/.rvm/gems/jruby-1.6.7.2@global/gems 
total 0
drwxr-xr-x   9 jstokes   306 Aug  9 16:26 ./
drwxr-xr-x   7 jstokes   238 Aug  9 16:25 ../

drwxr-xr-x  34 jstokes  1156 Aug  9 16:25 jruby-launcher-1.0.15-java/

drwxr-xr-x  13 jstokes   442 Aug  9 16:25 rake-0.9.2.2/
drwxr-xr-x  14 jstokes   476 Aug  9 16:26 rubygems-bundler-1.0.5/
drwxr-xr-x   8 jstokes   272 Aug  9 16:26 rvm-1.11.3.5/

Anyway, continuing on:

$ gem install torquebox-server
$ torquebox env

TORQUEBOX_HOME=/Users/jstokes/.rvm/gems/jruby-1.6.7.2@test/gems/torquebox-server-2.1.2-java
JBOSS_HOME=/Users/jstokes/.rvm/gems/jruby-1.6.7.2@test/gems/torquebox-server-2.1.2-java/jboss
JRUBY_HOME=/Users/jstokes/.rvm/rubies/jruby-1.6.7.2

So far so good, right? Now here's where it goes south:

$ echo "gem 'torquebox'" > Gemfile
$ torquebox env

TORQUEBOX_HOME=
JBOSS_HOME=/jboss
JRUBY_HOME=/Users/jstokes/.rvm/rubies/jruby-1.6.7.2

And now the vars are broken, so I can't use torquebox. If I delete the "gem 'torquebox'" line from the Gemfile, it works fine again, however, it messes up my rails deployment to torquebox. Any ideas?

(PS: This happens on OS X 10.8.2 and OS X 10.7.5. I'm using the latest version of ZSH with iTerm, and RVM is updated to the latest stable release as of today.)

Update: "bundle exec torquebox env" doesn't work either, FYI :(

You only have torquebox in Gemfile; you'll need to use torquebox-server instead (since torquebox is a dependency of torquebox-server).
