Bundler gem needs to be in the Gemfile to boot a Rails app

[brynary]

In our Gemfile:

gem 'actionpack', '3.0.0.beta3'
gem 'railties', '3.0.0.beta3'

Note we're not depending on the "rails" gem as we don't want AR and AM. Here's what we get:

$ bundle exec rake --trace spec
(in /Users/bhelmkamp/p/active/gilt)
rake aborted!
no such file to load -- bundler
/Users/bhelmkamp/p/active/gilt/config/boot.rb:4:in require' /Users/bhelmkamp/p/active/gilt/config/boot.rb:4 /Users/bhelmkamp/p/active/gilt/config/application.rb:1:inrequire'
/Users/bhelmkamp/p/active/gilt/config/application.rb:1
/Users/bhelmkamp/p/active/gilt/Rakefile:4:in `require'
/Users/bhelmkamp/p/active/gilt/Rakefile:4

This is fixed by adding Bundler itself to the Gemfile, but consensus with Yehuda and Carl is that shouldn't be required.

I can't reproduce this while using bundle exec. What do you get if you run bundle exec 'echo $RUBYOPT'?

Add Bundler to the bundle exec $LOAD_PATH, even while locked
