it's because those gems packages overload some library location
mechanisms (they kind of dictate a structure and ignore the fact that
one might want to ship script with libs in a different way); texexec cus
coul dnot operate in such an environment without installers which would
add another level of complexity
the same is true for lua and luarocks which also can sit in the way;
however, this does not hurt luatex because we have an isolated
environment here
