I’m seeing an unusual segfault when running unit tests. Google hasn’t had much to say about the openssl gem. Anyone have some insight into this? $\> rake test:units --trace (in /DevEnvironment/Work/ejabberd/components/user\_activity/branches/invitations) \*\* Invoke test:units (first\_time) \*\* Execute test:units /opt/local/bin/ruby -I"lib:test" “/opt/local/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/rake-0.8.7/lib/rake/rake\_test\_loader.rb” “test/unit/event\_logs\_asynchronous\_test.rb” “test/unit/invitation\_handler\_asynchronous\_test.rb” “test/unit/invitation\_handler\_test.rb” “test/unit/user\_activity\_jack\_asyncronous\_test.rb” “test/unit/user\_activity\_jack\_test.rb” “test/unit/xmpp\_util\_test.rb” /opt/local/lib/ruby/1.8/openssl/ssl-internal.rb:30: [BUG] Segmentation fault ruby 1.8.7 (2010-06-23 patchlevel 299) [i686-darwin10] rake aborted!
