>Description:

	The first problem is that the tests expect tmp/ subdirectory,
	which needs to be created. This is fixed easily by the following
	patch:

	Index: Makefile
	===================================================================
	RCS file: /home/pcvs/ports/databases/ruby-bdb/Makefile,v
	retrieving revision 1.62
	diff -U 1 -r1.62 Makefile
	--- Makefile	22 Apr 2011 11:38:15 -0000	1.62
	+++ Makefile	2 Sep 2011 17:47:55 -0000
	@@ -70,2 +70,3 @@
	 regression-test:
	+	@${MKDIR} ${BUILD_WRKSRC}/tmp
		( cd ${BUILD_WRKSRC} && ${SETENV} ${MAKE_ENV} ${MAKE} \


	Now, /running/ the tests reveals segmentation faults and other
	serious problems, such as data discrepancies, when compiled
	against Ruby-1.9

>How-To-Repeat:

	Apply the above patch. Attempt `make regression-test' using Ruby-1.9

>Fix:

	Apply the above patch. Stick to Ruby-1.8 for the time being.
