It worked pretty much exactly by the book
(http://media.pragprog.com/titles/ruby3/ext_ruby.pdf). I'm building on
Centos5 Linux and I needed to add a few libraries to the link command:
-lpthread -lcrypt -ldl -lrt.

I'm trying to work out how to get a Windows build going using MSys,
MingW or Visual Studio. If anybody has any hints, it would be appreciated.
