ttilley/fssm — Issue #37: fssm 0.2.8 builds native extension in wrong place

when installing fssm using bundler with the --path option, the native extension is not being built in the specified path. For instance, our rails app is in

/var/web/rails

and we invoke bundler like so:

bundle install --path /var/web/rails/vendor/bundle

however, fssm 0.2.8 still attempts to build the native gem into the system ruby path, which the user running `bundle install` doesn't have write access to, so the install fails. We've worked around this for now, by pinning fssm to 0.2.7 in our Gemfile, since 0.2.7 doesn't have this issue.
