I'm getting this error on my mac. I have ffi 1.1.5 installed....

Here is my ruby version as well.

Have the same problem on Ubuntu Precise 12.04. Reading elsewhere, the ffi error doesn't matter right? Just the vds error?

To fix the vds error, remove the comma at the end of line 656 in /Library/Ruby/Gems/1.8/gems/rvc-1.7.0/lib/rvc/modules/vds.rb.

rvc should work without fixing ffi, but I was able to get it to work by installing the readline package using MacPorts and adding the following line to my .bashrc :
export RVC_READLINE=/opt/local/lib/libreadline.dylib

"export RVC_READLINE=/opt/local/lib/libreadline.dylib" works on my Ruby 2.0.0p247 on OS X 10.7.5
