Why isn't 'gets' working in my Ruby script when I run from TextMate?

When running the following ruby script:

puts gets.inspect

On the terminal I am prompted for input and then the inspect output is sh

Specifically, you need to copy the tm_interactive_input.dylib file linked to by Phrogz in the following path:

/Applications/TextMate.app/Contents/SharedSupport/Support/lib/tm_interactive_input.dylib

Keep in mind that it's possible any TextMate updates will overwrite or delete this file.
