Subject: Re: Problems building mysql ruby 2.4.4 on 1.8

I had the same problem trying to build it last night with 1.8 preview 1
on Intel architecture on Redhat 8.0.  Incidentally, it failed to build an
earlier version of the library which used a different method of finding
cpp (find cpp).  I don't know what the workaround is.
