Does it affect multithreading (i.e., tk)?

Anyway, it seems that the problem exists only on mandrake, even with
newer ruby than on my debian box. The latest one was tried is
2003-12-27, and on debian I was happy with 2003-11-11. Are you sure
compiling the HEAD version solves the problem?

Nobody uses mandrake here?
