I had to give up and use the hand-compiled gem in the "Rails" machine image, rather than being able to install this gem using bundler in my existing server. Here's the error report:

The error messages point to an error in a Ruby header file, which leads me to believe that the issue might not be in therubyracer.

Searching for the issue pointed me to https://gist.github.com/rhenium/10718767
