Yes, that's a new "feature" in 1.9.2. Relative requires no longer work.

That is caused by the "magic" in ruby 1.9.* which tries to fallback to
using rubygems if a normal require fails. I'm not sure yet where we
should go about that.
Another known problem is that the fact that the rubygems version that we
have in squeeze (which is the latest upstream version of rubygems)
doesn't work with ruby 1.9.2. Again, I'm not sure yet of the solution we
should use for that. We could package rubygems1.9.1 from the ruby 1.9.2
source instead of from the rubygems standalone source, but it sounds a
bit dirty to have so much duplication of efforts.
