I was able to confirm that that wasn’t happening on my AMD64.

Although to get this to work I had to patch the extconf.rb that you have  
in your gem.

Here’s what I replaced it with:

```
require 'mkmf'
find_library("onig","onig_new")
find_header("oniguruma.h", *%w(/usr/local/include 

```

/opt/local/include))  
$CFLAGS=’-Wall’  
create\_makefile( “oregexp” )

enjoy,
