Mac.

I installed readline, then I followed the directions for installing ruby  
1.8.6. I ran “sudo make install” - no errors. When I ran “make  
install-doc”, I get the following errors:

Running the command “ruby -v” tells me I’ve got version 1.8.6. What are  
these errors and should I be worried?

This is output from the documentation generator.  
Maybe the socket api is not properly documented.  
Nothing to be worried about.
