It may provide a program with the same name, but it is not equivalent. If it did, this fix wouldn't break it for you.

Bug #13041: ruby 2.4 rc1 dtrace build fixes

----------------------------------------
In FreeBSD before 11.0, using dtrace -G or -h will not work in a jail or without dtrace kernel modules loaded unless the -xnolibs flag is passed as well. Since we build in jails, this is needed during our build, so we have this patch:

https://svnweb.freebsd.org/ports/head/lang/ruby22/files/patch-Makefile.in?revision=369732&view=markup

We have used it with ruby 2.2, and 2.3 for a long time. Please consider it or a similar change for Ruby 2.4
