Subject: [ruby-talk:22253] Re: segfault on RedHat 6.2

Hi Matz,

It turns out I did a "make install" into /usr/local on that rh6.2 machine,
after "rm /usr/local/lib/ruby", it seems working fine.

Maybe I'm not supposed to have /usr/local installation and CVS version
running at the same time. But still, segfault was a big surprise.
