[ruby-core:35313] [Ruby 1.9-Bug#4373] http.rb:677: [BUG] Segmentation fault

Issue #4373 has been updated by Christian Fazzini.

File Gemfile added

Ok, I have pinpointed the problem. I do not need to move /opt. To diagnose this, I created a new rails app. I have included the gem file. In there you will see that it includes the twitter gem. HOWEVER, I've commented line 9: gem 'pg'. Which I will explain why, later on.

The following now works, through these steps:

sudo mv /opt /opt_old

ruby -r twitter -e 'puts Twitter.user("sferik").location'
San Francisco

rails c
ruby-1.9.2-p136 :001 > Twitter.user("sferik").location
 => "San Francisco" 

---------------

In the gem file, if I uncomment line 9: gem 'twitter' and then do bundle install. In console, running ruby -r twitter -e 'puts Twitter.user("sferik").location' still works. 

However when I go into rails console, Twitter.user("sferik").location returns the segfault error.

I suspect that it has something to do with the way I installed PostgreSql, via macports. You will notice, when I do: sudo port uninstall openssl, it says:

Warning: port definitions are more than two weeks old, consider using selfupdate
--->  Unable to uninstall/deactivate openssl @1.0.0c_0, the following ports depend on it:
--->  	postgresql83 @8.3.13_0
--->  	python27 @2.7.1_1
Error: Target org.macports.uninstall returned: Please uninstall the ports that depend on openssl first.
Log for openssl is at: /opt/local/var/macports/logs/_opt_local_var_macports_registry_portfiles_openssl_1.0.0c_0/main.log
Warning: Failed to execute portfile from registry for openssl @1.0.0c_0
--->  Unable to uninstall/deactivate openssl @1.0.0c_0, the following ports depend on it:
--->  	postgresql83 @8.3.13_0
--->  	python27 @2.7.1_1
Error: port uninstall failed: Please uninstall the ports that depend on openssl first.

I believe that the problem occurs because:
- Rails includes the pg gem, which is using the openssl version of macports and not the OSX default openssl. 

The next approach I will take, is to uninstall postgresql and openssl through macports and reinstall postgresql to be configured to use OSX default openssl. I don't know if I can install postgresql to use OSX default openssl, but I will give it a shot and report my findings here.
