That was my setup too. Weird that I no longer seem to have this problem.

I've committed the following patch to next, which explicitly versions
bin/sup and lib/sup.rb and compares the two upon startup. Hopefully this
should detect this type of situation. For those of you who like to play
with sup via "rake gem", gems built from your checkout will have version
999.  (This was a suggestion Ian Taylor made a long time ago.)
