[oi-dev] ruby 3.1.0preview1

[stes@PANDORA.BE]

Thanks, this helps.  Indeed, the ruby configure script detects gar,
but it allows to select "ar" by using the AR environment variable.

When I configure like this:

./configure --prefix=$HOME/ruby-31 --with-gcc AR=/usr/bin/ar

then the "gar" errors disappear and it seems to do correctly:

compiling builtin.c
generating a glommed object with DTrace probes for static library
linking static-library libruby-static.a

I'll update the Ruby issue on the ruby website with this info.

Thanks again,
David Stes
