[TxMt] Bug in Ruby bundle: Control-Q comment reformatting produces an error for long words

I've found a bug in the Ruby bundle for Textmate.  Under certain
circumstances, using Control-Q to reformat comment code raises an exception
that spews error code into the source.

Is this the right forum to post bugs in Ruby bundles?

The problem occurs if you have a comment that contains a single word that
goes past column 79.  For example, in the following code (also attached) the
x's in the comment extend out to column 80:

#
xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
def func(x,y)
  x+y
end

If you place the caret inside the comment and press control-Q you see the
following:

/Applications/TextMate.app/Contents/SharedSupport/Bundles/Source.tmbundle/Support/bin/rubywrap.rb:365:in
/bin/bash: +': invalid option
Usage:    /bin/bash [GNU long option] [option] ...
    /bin/bash [GNU long option] [option] script-file ...
GNU long options:
    --debug
    --dump-po-strings
    --dump-strings
    --help
    --init-file
    --login
    --noediting
    --noprofile
    --norc
    --posix
    --rcfile
    --restricted
    --verbose
    --version
    --wordexp
Shell options:
    -irsD or -c command or -O shopt_option        (invocation only)
    -abefhkmnptuvxBCHP or -o optionwrite'
  from
/Applications/TextMate.app/Contents/SharedSupport/Bundles/Source.tmbundle/Support/bin/rubywrap.rb:408
def func(x,y)
  x+y
end

This doesn't happen if the word in the comment stops before column 80.

This isn't an impossible scenario because it's easy to have a URL in your
documentation that's more than 80 characters long.
