Unable to create a rails application using system gems

The issue is that the following commit introduced a dependency on a gem during active_support initialization:

http://github.com/rails/rails/commit/135d32c8bd91608c12a394ca5dbd65...

In activesupport/lib/active_support.rb, there is a require for active_support.vendor, however with the above commit i18n is no longer a vendor library.

Attached are two patches which resolve this: the first is localized to active_support, but has the unfortunate side effect of requiring rubygems. The second is localized to bin/rails.
