The "--" is required when gem-flags is passed in. It is optional when
gem-flags is empty. Do you think gem authors should always prepend the
"--" in front of the other options? I would think it is a builder
thing if we can abstract it away. Right? If that is so, we can leave it
there since it is harmless if gem-flags is empty.
