mxcl/homebrew — Issue #8903: Error: Couldn't determine build system

I tried to configure homebrew
```brew configure
Error: Couldn't determine version, try --set-version```

Next try:
```brew configure --set-version 0.8
Error: Couldn't determine build system```

Now I'm stuck since I cant add the build system via some flags. But it seems there's something wrong. Any ideas? :/

```$ brew --env
