Subject: patch for large file support

I needed to work with some large files and was disappointed to see
that this very nice language couldn't see them!

So, I wrote a patch which is available here:

  http://www.jonathanbaker.org/software/ruby/ruby.html

It is for version 1.6.7 and should work on (at least) most Unix
platforms, possibly others too.

Enjoy,
