Subject: irb problem in latest ruby tarball

Hi,

I compiled and installed latest Ruby 1.7.2 (2002-02-08) from CVS on a
Windows XP machine running Cygwin 1.3.9. Get a problem when starting
irb:

$ irb
(eval):1:in `def_token': compile error
(eval):1: class definition in method body
class TkCLASS < RubyToken::TkId; end; TkCLASS
                                ^: (eval):1:in `def_token': compile error
(Synta
xError)
(eval):1: class definition in method body
class TkCLASS < RubyToken::TkId; end; TkCLASS
                                ^
        from /usr/local/lib/ruby/1.7/irb/ruby-token.rb:269:in `eval'
        from /usr/local/lib/ruby/1.7/irb/ruby-token.rb:253:in `def_token'
        from /usr/local/lib/ruby/1.7/irb/ruby-token.rb:269
        from /usr/local/lib/ruby/1.7/irb/ruby-token.rb:268:in `each'
        from /usr/local/lib/ruby/1.7/irb/ruby-token.rb:268
        from /usr/local/lib/ruby/1.7/irb/ruby-lex.rb:15:in `require'
        from /usr/local/lib/ruby/1.7/irb/ruby-lex.rb:15
        from /usr/local/lib/ruby/1.7/irb.rb:19:in `require'
        from /usr/local/lib/ruby/1.7/irb.rb:19
        from /usr/local/bin/irb:10:in `require'
        from /usr/local/bin/irb:10

the "make test" succeeds.

Regards,

Robert
