Subject: Re: Ruby with RHEL 4, 64-bit

I have compiled and run it on RHEL ES 4, on a 64-bit machine, and so far
have noticed no problems.
The version of Ruby that comes with this redhat release 4 is relatively
old and the  ri rdocs do not seem
to be generated or generatable, which is why I uninstalled the RPM
version, and build from the latest stable
sources, and ri rdocs where generated as per docs ok.
