SSL error when running configure

Rubinius's configure script fails during the "Fetching gems" stage on my OS X 10.8.5 machine with these errors:

This is not a Rubinius issue, but a problem with the OS X / Homebrew OpenSSL setup. Afaik there is going to be a workaround in the new Rubygems, but you can also use something like this: https://github.com/raggi/openssl-osx-ca
