Subject: Problems building binaries on OS X 10.4

This is with the Ruby that ships with 10.4 (Tiger).  We haven't tried
building our
own Ruby on this platform yet.

The problem is that the .h header files are in
/usr/lib/ruby/1.8/universal-darwin8.0,
while the library files are bundles in
/usr/lib/ruby/1.8/powerpc-darwin8.0

which makes sense.  But the extfile build system seems to look in
powerpc-darwin8.0, but not universal...  -- the RUBY_PLATFORM
var is set to "powerpc-darwin8.0".

Should we build our own Ruby?  Is there a way to configure our build
system to use /usr/bin/ruby?  What if we want to build and use a fat
ruby?

Thanks,
Eric
