Hi,

While compiling/installing ruby from the stable-snapshot of today, it  
fails with:

make[1]: Entering directory `/home/mccramer/ruby' gcc -g -O2 -fPIC -DRUBY_EXPORT -rdynamic -Wl,-export-dynamic -L. main.o -Wl,-R -Wl,/usr/lib -L/usr/lib -L. -lruby -lpthread -ldl -lcrypt -lm -o ruby make[1]: Leaving directory`/home/mccramer/ruby’

I am using an up-to-date Gentoo with gcc-4.1.1. installed.

What did I wrong here ???

Thank you very much for any help in advance !  
Have a nice weekend!
