Can't install on 10.4.11: "Could not find a suitable Xcode installation"

I'm getting the same issue as the Lion user in another closed issue:
Installing rb-fsevent (0.4.3.1) with native extensions /Users/deveritt/.rvm/rubies/ruby-1.9.2-p180/lib/ruby/1.9.1/rubygems/installer.rb:483:in `rescue in block in build_extensions': ERROR: Failed to build gem native extension. (Gem::Installer::ExtensionBuildError)

what does xcode-select -print-path give you?
I just upgraded to 10.5 and it returns: /Developer although it returned the 'no such command' message on 10.4.11 - I had upgraded (and was using) developer tools before moving to 10.5.
sudo gem install rb-fsevent now installed happily under 10.5, so no longer an issue for me, although it may still be for 10.4.11 users.
Holy crap, how did I manage to completely ignore the version number there... Even if xcode-select returned usable output, the FSEvent API is only available on 10.5+. My apologies. -_-
LOL! Good to know it wasn't my setup screwing with things... and to have this issue for other Tiger users.
