I am having issues with the JSON gem and Ruby 1.9.2. I am upgrading to Rails 3.0.3 and whenever I try to boot the environment it blows up. This is from a empty test project with only JSON gem 1.4.6 as a dependency.
/Users/lee/.rvm/gems/ruby-1.9.2-p0/gems/json-1.4.6/lib/json/common.rb:66: [BUG] unknown type 0x22 (0xc given)
ruby 1.9.2p0 (2010-08-18 revision 29036) [x86_64-darwin10.4.0]

Abort trap
I had some weird issues after upgrading to Snow Leopard because of the 64-bit difference so if you upgraded to Snow Leopard you might be running into the same thing.
I installed the latest XCode, then blew away my 1.9.2 install using rvm uninstall 1.9.2 and rebuilt all the gems using gem update --system; gem pristine --all.
