"syntax error, unexpected $end, expecting kEND"
With the line number pointing to the last line of the file.
So I was busy doing something when I was interrupted and I dropped an
"end" somewhere.
No idea where.
Sigh! Time for a binary chop search.
I wish I could think of an easier way, like the highlighting emacs
does for '(; and '{'

I think vim syntax coloring highlights xx-end pairs, and Komodo's
auto-indent cleans them up nicely as well.
Binary chop was useless. Wherever I put an "end", it would compile!
It took me ages to review it line by line and spot it....
blah.each do |line|
foo.bah( line)
foo.blech
foo.
end
Ruby helpfully thought I was invoking the "end" method on the object in the foo variable.
Sigh!

I find that the best way to find these in (g)vim is
ggVG=
ggVG selects all the lines in the file and then = re-formats the indentation.
In most cases this will point out the problem, although there are a
few cases where vims ruby formatter got confused.
I had one today which had me scratching my head for a few moments, I'd
inadvertantly put in a line something like
x .y unless unless a.b
Took me a bit of effort to find that one.

gg=G
move to start of file, initiate indent-action, move to end of file 
and yeah, that's how i find 99.5% of missing ends, unless i use some
regexps that mess up the indentation
