I'm not familiar with the above make.conf variable (I'm sure others
are), but the "env" error you see is likely because the underlying
sub-shell that's spawned is /bin/sh, and the default PATH for that shell
probably doesn't include /usr/local/bin.

I'm also unsure what ruby has to do with buildworld.  (I don't see
anything relevant in /usr/share/mk or /usr/src).
