[ruby-dev:7696] Re: [ruby-list:16118] Ruby 1.4.0

ふなばです。

マニュアルの綴り違いなどの修正を試みてみました (ざっとみただけですが)。
よくわからないところもあるんですが (-r など)、確認お願いします。あと、
オプションの記述がアルファベット順のようで、そうでない (-Kc)、というの
も直していいのかもしれないです。また、-T、--copyright の記述がないよう
ですね。

README.EXT では、klass になっているところと class のところがあるので
すが、これは統一してもいいかも。

ruby.c:usage() も正しいと思われるように直してみました。ruby.1 では、
-0[octal]、ruby.c では、-0[digit] となるなど、表現を統一してもよいかも。
