The best way to test something is to put it into CVS, I think
that GEM is very good idea, but I don't have time to test it.
I can add it into CVS. 
But if we put it into CVS the Makefile should probably use 
the GRASS make system (CC,CFLAGS,..)?
Maybe the gem binary could be installed in bin.$(ARCH)
or dist.$(ARCH)/bin.
Where to put the gem directory in GRASS tree, in 'tools'?
Can you create also patches for  Grass.make.in and Rules.make?
