I have actually managed to get this bit of mod_ruby to work, very  
bizarrely, by putting in a bit of debug code that writes out the paths  
to a file. It magically works after that - absolutely no idea why. I'm  
away from my development Mac atm but will try and remember to post the  
code on Monday (er, that's not an invitation for people to use my GPS  
tracks to find out where I keep my Mac, and steal it).

eruby, however, is proving a whole heap more problematic to get working.
