I have reported the following to rake-devel@rubyforge.org
Has anyone experienced anything similar or am I on my own on this one?
All advice appreciated
Thanks

Nobuyoshi Nakada suggests the following problem is due to a rake bug.
Currently I am unable to install hpricot on a win 64 system. See following
bug report with response from Nobuyoshi Nakada
Original Bug Report:
Looks like latest version of hpricot is not pathing correctly for installation
on win 64 systems which have both a C:\Program
Files and C:Program Files (86) directory. On the other hand correct path seems
to be followed to write the
gem_make.out file.
gem install hpricot
Building native extensions. This could take a while
ERROR: Error installing hpricot
ERROR: Failed to build gem native extension.
C:/Program Files (x86)/ruby/bin/ruby.exe extconf.rb install hpricot
'C:/Program' is not recognized as an internal or external command,
operable program or batch file.
Gen files will remain installed in C:/Program Files (x86)/ruby/lib/ruby/gems/
1.8/gems/hpricot-0.6.161 for inspection.
Results logged to C:/Program Files (x86)/ruby/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/hpricot-

gem_make.out:

I wrote "for *1.9*".
Rake isn't bundled with 1.8 and the gem is not my responsibiilty,
so you have to report the issue to the Rake project.

I am still getting same error. Have tried gem update rake.
This is not fixed for me - I am currently without hpricot.
Maybe I have missed something??

Seems like an issue of rake.
Fixed in the repository for 1.9.
