yup.

% which ruby && ruby -v
/usr/local/bin/ruby
ruby 1.8.1 (2003-12-25) [i386-openbsd3.4]

% ./ruby -v
ruby 1.8.2 (2004-07-29) [i386-openbsd3.4]

Hmm... I don't know what to tell you, just to test it out I rebuilt both
the 1.8.1 from ports and the 1.8.2-preview2 tarball.  Both worked fine.

Rebuilding 1.8.2 worked just fine with the the standard ./configure &&
make.  It doesn't appear that building 1.8.2 requires gmake.

If you have some more info, post and maybe someone can help out.

enjoy,
