OK. Here I go replying to my own mail. I've gotten this to work from the command line now.

$ ./miniruby -x -v script_tmp -zzz=555
ruby 1.6.4 (2001-06-04) [i386-freebsdelf3.3]
555$
$ ./miniruby -x -s script_tmp -zzz=555
555$
$ ./miniruby -x . script_tmp -zzz=555
./miniruby: No Ruby script found in input (LoadError)
$

I'm not sure if that last one is proper syntax or not, but it looks like it ought to be... If it is, maybe that'll help someone help me with whatever I'm doing wrong in my build...

I'm just really concerned that -x isn't working in test.rb.
