Please remove the directory /var/db/ports/ruby and stick to default
CFLAGS by removing all CFLAGS definitions from /etc/make.conf (you can
add your options later)

It seems that ruby always uses "-pthread" even if threading is not
enabled, -fPIC in NOT needed.

Check that libpthread.* is a symlink to libthr.* and that libthr.so ->
/lib/libthr.so.3
