Portable Ruby is broken

Don't do this, it makes rake refer to /usr/local/Homebrew/Library/Homebrew/vendor/portable-ruby/2.3.3/bin/rake which doesn't exist.

Please always follow these steps:

• Confirmed this is a problem with running a brew command and not brew installing or the post-install behaviour of one or more formulae? If it's a formulae-specific problem please file this issue at the relevant tap e.g. for Homebrew/homebrew-core https://github.com/Homebrew/homebrew-core/issues/new
  technically this happens while installing a formula but it's not an issue with the formula, so i'm reporting here
• Ran brew update and retried your prior step?
• Ran brew doctor, fixed all issues and retried your prior step?
• Ran brew config and brew doctor and included their output with your issue?

brew config && brew doctor

To help us debug your issue please explain:

• What you were trying to do (and why)
  locally brew install passenger (on sierra or earlier, built from source), to check if today's release works fine in homebrew on non-high-sierra macs.
• What happened (include command output)
  the rake method in a formula uses the portable ruby that homebrew recently introduced, but it's broken because you deliberately delete rake.
  This gets called: /usr/local/Homebrew/Library/Homebrew/vendor/portable-ruby/2.3.3/bin/rake apache2 but that path doesn't exist.
• What you expected to happen
  I should be able to use rake
• Step-by-step reproduction instructions (by running brew commands)

brew install passenger --build-from-source

@MikeMcQuaid here's your answers, I can't see how this is helpful though there's no more useful info.
