Issue #13215 has been updated by Nobuyoshi Nakada.


RubyGems is bundled but not a part of Ruby.
The upstream is https://github.com/rubygems/rubygems.
I have never cross-compiled gems with extension libraries.

Bug #13215: Cross compiling Ruby Gems uses Build System Linker Options
https://bugs.ruby-lang.org/issues/13215#change-62990

* Author: Roy Keene
* Status: Third Party's Issue
* Priority: Normal
* Assignee: 
* Target version: 
* ruby -v: 
* Backport: 2.2: UNKNOWN, 2.3: UNKNOWN, 2.4: UNKNOWN
----------------------------------------
When cross-compiling Ruby Gems under Ruby 2.4.0, the rbconfig system uses the build system's configuration to cross-compile Ruby Gems, resulting in linker flags that do not work for the host system's linker.

Example:
