For the most part, I had been using rvm ruby 1.9.2. Recently I installed
ruby 1.9.3 via rvm. I just tested this in my 1.9.2, and the json pretty
print is as I like it, unsquished:

$ which ruby
~/.rvm/rubies/ruby-1.9.2-p290/bin/ruby

$ gem list chef

*** LOCAL GEMS ***

chef (10.24.0, 10.16.2)


Wrt custom/non-opscode knife plugins, for good measure, I moved aside my
~/.chef/plugins dir, reran ruby 1.9.3 test, and still got squished json.
