Latest changes to RubyGems into ruby_2_0_0 branch are causing failures in RubyInstaller CI:

http://ci.rubyinstaller.org/job/ruby-2_0_0-x64-test-all/10/console
http://ci.rubyinstaller.org/job/ruby-2_0_0-x86-test-all/10/console

1. Failure:
   test_initialize_user_install(TestGemInstaller) [C:/Users/Worker/Jenkins/workspace/ruby-2_0_0-x64-build/test/rubygems/test_gem_installer.rb:672]:
   --- expected

   -"C:/Users/Worker/AppData/Local/Temp/test_rubygems_2320/userhome/.gem/ruby/2.0.0/bin"
   +"C:\Users\Worker\AppData\Local\Temp\test_rubygems_2320\userhome\.gem\ruby\2.0.0\bin"

Seems that the path obtained is not converted to posix like (via File.expand_path) or the expected value turned into the native-compatible one.
