Subject: [ruby-core:28220] [Bug #2750] build fails on win32/MinGW: "executable host ruby is required." even when --with-baseruby is used

Issue #2750 has been updated by Christian Bodt.


Hi,

I just tried it and it fails in the same way : 'executable host ruby is required. use --with-baseruby option.' during make. 

The "RUBYOPT line" test is my isolation of that problem.

$ ./configure --with-baseruby='c:\Programs\ruby-1.9\bin\ruby.exe'
(...)
configure: creating ./config.status
config.status: creating GNUmakefile
config.status: creating Makefile

$ make
