 Failed to install with unprivileged user (UNPRIVILEGED=yes or USE_DESTDIR=full)
 even thogh this package is PKG_DESTDIR_SUPPORT=user-destdir.
 "/usr/bin/install -o root -g wheel" is came from 
${PREFIX}/lib/ruby/1.8/${arch}/rbconfig.rb.
 It was defined when ruby18-base was configured.
 Then if ruby18-base was built with UNPRIVILEGED=yes, mongrel is also able to 
be built
 with unprivileged user.
 
 Anyway, it is not good that such a configuration phase setteings is in result 
of binary package,
 ans used for installation of other packages.
 
 Should we patched to rbconfig.rb to add a knob to specify install command used 
with pkgsrc?
 
 something like change
   CONFIG["INSTALL"] = '/usr/bin/install -c -o root -g wheel'
 to 
   CONFIG["INSTALL"] = ENV['INSTALL'] ? ENV['INSTALL'] : "/usr/bin/install -c 
-o root -g wheel"
