Actually, both work. AFAIK, rubygems is the official name of the library
but ubygems is also there so it looks good when using the -r options.
'ruby -rubygems' and 'ruby -rrubygems' are equivalent.

Looking in /usr/lib/ruby I see:

/usr/lib/ruby/site_ruby/1.8/ubygems.rb
/usr/lib/ruby/site_ruby/1.8/rubygems.rb

and

$ cat /usr/lib/ruby/site_ruby/1.8/ubygems.rb
# This file allows for the running of rubygems with a nice
# command line look-and-feel: ruby -rubygems foo.rb

require 'rubygems'
