Be more specific:
- what exactly did you type?
- what exactly did you see?
- when exactly did this happen?

For example, are you getting this segfault when you compile ruby 1.9, or 
when you run an application? If so, what's the application? Does that 
application use any gems? Are any of those gems 'native' gems (i.e. 
compile C code)? Are those gems all known to work with ruby 1.9?

Also consider why you are running 1.9. If stability and/or compatibility 
are important to you, then I'd suggest you stick with 1.8.x
