On Ruby0s wiki for committers:

http://redmine.ruby-lang.org/projects/ruby/wiki/CommitterHowto

* Always build Ruby outside of $(srcdir)
* Always build Ruby inside of $(srcdir) too, using ./configure.

In neither of both cases ruby is usable straight away without playing with RUBYLIB to ensure the proper paths are used.

This is noticed when you need to load any extension or library that is part of stdlib.

That never worked since I remember.

That is one of the reasons I personally install before doing manual testing on the produced Ruby.

http://redmine.ruby-lang.org/issues/4941

Author: Lazaridis Ilias
Status: Rejected
Priority: Normal
Assignee: Usaku NAKAMURA
Category: core
Target version: 
ruby -v: ruby 1.9.3dev (2011-06-28 trunk 32265) [i386-mswin32_90]


=begin

From within the directory of a fresh trunk checkout:

$ win32\configure
$ nmake
$ miniruby -e"p 'hello'" #=> hello
$ ruby -e"p 'hello'"

 <internal:gem_prelude>:1:in `require': cannot load such file -- rubygems.rb (LoadError)
        from <internal:gem_prelude>:1:in `<compiled>'

(the exact same procedure using branch 1.9.2 worked fine)
=end
