what platform are you on? you shouldn't have to link gem executable scripts anywhere for them to work.
when I install gems, the system creates a wrapper executable in an existing bin/ directory (/usr/bin/ on OSX, /var/lib/gems/1.9.1/bin/ on Debian Squeeze) that lets you force a version for the loaded gem and then loads the original executable script without launching a new interpreter - this ignores the supposed #! line in the gem's internal bin/rainbows, which is why that file says its #! will be overwritten or wrapped.
If installing rainbows didn't leave an executable script somewhere in your $PATH you might need to find where your local gem package is putting the wrappers and add that to your search path.
cheers
