Manual workaround: append following to PATH variable
c:\tools\DevKits\bin;c:\tools\devkits\mingw\bin;

TO verify next time someone sets up a new box, if he/she too faces similar error. This might be resolved by pinning down the versions of ruby and rubydevkit installed by chocolatey.

The chocolatey package does trigger devkit setup but devkit does not detect the ruby on 64 bit windows. Problem explained here:
