okay, i'm running Linux on an Athlon XP and i beleive i'm compiling for i686. (hmmm... have to check which version of gcc). specifically i'm using GoboLinux which has a non-standard FHS, but I am pretty certian that i've told it where everything is.

when i try gdb it tells me that core dosen't exist. i.e. no such file or directory. do i need to do something to get core to exist? (or perhaps it's being placed somewhere else?)

the --enable-shared option got me past miniruby, it's now bombing right after that on libruby.so.1.8.1.

the error specifically says: 'mkmf.rb:354: [BUG] Segmentation Fault' if that helps.

thanks for your help,
