RubyGems will install native extension files into the following paths:
$GEM_HOME/gems/extensions/$arch-$platform-$version/$rubyversion/foo-x.y.z
$GEM_HOME/gems/foo-x.y.z/lib
The native extension files in $GEM_HOME/gems/foo-x.y.z/lib directory is harmful for us. Because this directory couldn't handle architecture, platform and ruby version. So, We should use native extension files in $GEM_HOME/gems/extensions/$arch-$platform-$version/$rubyversion/foo-x.y.z directory, not $GEM_HOME/gems/foo-x.y.z/lib directory.
