I've pulled all rbenv + ruby-build changes. Not worked.

Manually uninstalling rbenv and reinstalling 2.7.1 and 2.7.2 solved my problem.

Looks like I have managed to reproduce this issue. Clean install rbenv and ruby-build then install 3.0.0 and 3.0.1.

Here are steps to reproduce on Ubuntu 20.10 x86_64

Remove ~/.rbenv and install rbenv by "Basic GitHub Checkout" method as follows.

Install ruby-build as "rbenv plugin" and install Ruby 3.0.0

Such a bizarre error. I cannot reproduce. Those who can: do you have RUBYOPT or RUBYLIB set in your environment variables, by any chance?

@hsbt Do you know if building a Ruby version is dependent or at all affected by having another Ruby version installed on the system? The reproduction steps so far suggest that the LoadError pops up depending on which Ruby version is being installed and which other Ruby version was selected as "global".

I ran into the same error installing 3.0.1 with asdf on Ubuntu 20.04.

Following similar steps to @smoothdvd, I was able to install 3.0.1:

Switching the global version from 3.0.0 to 2.7.2 with asdf global ruby 2.7.2
Install ruby 3.0.1 with asdf install ruby 3.0.1

@mislav , You are correct on our comment. This hapenned to me from version 2.6.8 to version 2.7.3. I solved it as follows:

I am using CentOS 7 on a corporate environment. For that reason my options are quite limited.
Disable or remove ALL other ruby and gem installations from your environment. I did that by starting a plain zsh session with just the standard $PATH environment variables loaded.

Install rbenv

$ git clone https://github.com/rbenv/rbenv.git ~/.rbenv
$ cd ~/.rbenv
$ src/configure && make -C src

Add $HOME/.rbenv/bin to your $PATH
Install ruby-build

$ git clone https://github.com/rbenv/ruby-build.git ~/ruby-build
$ cd ~/ruby-build
$ sudo PREFIX=/usr/local/ ./install.sh

Ensure /usr/local/bin is in your $PATH.
Install version 2.6.8 and set it as global

$ sudo yum install -y openssl-devel readline-devel
$ rbenv install 2.6.8
$ rbenv global 2.6.8

You can check if it is correct using this command:

$ rbenv versions
  system
  2.6.8 (set by ~/.rbenv/version)

Install optparse using this newly installed version:

$ ~/.rbenv/versions/2.6.8/bin/gem install optparse

Install version 2.7.3 and set it as global:

$ rbenv install 2.7.3
$ rbenv global 2.7.3

You can check if it is correct using this command:

$ rbenv versions
  system
  2.6.8
* 2.7.3 (set by ~/.rbenv/version)

I believe this issue started from version 2.6.x to version 2.7.x as to update from 2.5.x to 2.6.x i did not have this issue.
I believe that the same steps need to be made from 2.6.x to 3.x

I'm facing the same issue with 2.7.0 in Void Linux x86_64.

My solution, based on previous comments, was to set RUBY_CONFIGURE_OPTS to indicate the "BASERUBY" (which I don't know what it means) and then install as usual:

$ rbenv versions
* system
  2.5.7
  2.6.6
$ export RUBY_CONFIGURE_OPTS=" --with-baseruby=$HOME/.rbenv/versions/2.6.6/bin/ruby"
$ rbenv install 2.7.0
Installing ruby-2.7.0...
Installed ruby-2.7.0 to $HOME/.rbenv/versions/2.7.0

From the log, when rbenv install 2.7.0 fails, I can see the next message:

   * BASERUBY -v:         ruby 2.7.4p191 (2021-07-07 revision a21a3b7d23) \
                          [x86_64-linux]

---
	BASERUBY = $HOME/.rbenv/shims/ruby --disable=gems

And notice that ruby 2.7.4p191 is system:

$ rbenv shell system
$ ruby --version
ruby 2.7.4p191 (2021-07-07 revision a21a3b7d23) [x86_64-linux]

Now, reading https://github.com/ruby/ruby/blob/master/configure.ac#L50 makes me wonder if a previous version of Ruby is needed to build Ruby >= 2.7.0?: "executable host ruby is required. use --with-baseruby option".

Whats your opinion? 🤔

I used system ruby instead of ruby-build's ruby 😅

sudo apt install ruby
rbenv global system

rbenv install 2.7.4

This issue happen on, when install new ruby version use RVM, but current, selected version is system ruby.

that is, this is a issue come from system ruby, don't use it, you can just remove system ruby use package manager, or switch to use a more older version ruby which installed use RVM.
