Hi, all.

I am using Stemmer4r library in my application. And it work perfect on  
1.8.2-15 (as you gess I am under Windows)

But after upgrading ruby to 184 I start getting [BUG] Segmentation fault  
in  
my application in following line  
Stemmer.new(‘en’)

it is just simple object creation and if I move it from my application  
codebase to separate script it runs without any problems

This is a script  
begin  
if RUBY\_PLATFORM =~ /win/  
require ‘stemmer4r/ext/win32/stemmer4r’ #Load Win specific so  
library  
else  
require ‘stemmer4r/ext/freebsd/stemmer4r’ #For FreeBSD  
end  
end

stemmer = Stemmer.new(‘en’)  
p stemmer

this is output  
C:\work\app\lib\>a.rb  
#Stemmer:0x2879f78

I have no clue about the reason of this error. How could I solve it?  
Would  
be glad to provide any additional info.

After commenting this line I have SegFault in another place

…  
return if singleton\_methods.include? ‘\_\_old\_\_find’  
…

So that it is not Stemmer but Ruby specific bug. Seems that  
1.8.4distibution very unstable on Windows.  
Have anybody SegFaults with OneClickInstaller??
