The only thing I can think of is to try to change the first line of  
the TODO script from:

#!/usr/bin/env ruby

to

#!/usr/local/bin/ruby

It should not make a difference, but you never know. I guess the  
question would be where does /usr/bin/env look for your ruby. Do you  
have more than one ruby installed? How did you install ruby?
Does running this command give any errors:
/usr/bin/env ruby -we 'require "erb"'
