Thanks for tested it. I still need someone that has FreeBSD 4.x to test  
ruby-opengl and ruby-gtk with this patch. It was one of reason knu has  
marked ruby-opengl as broke or used to have '_r', because ruby-opengl or  
other ruby stuff that use threads stuff will not working in FreeBSD 4.x.  
Anyone can test ruby-open's example files in  
/usr/local/share/examples/ruby18/opengl/ and as for ruby-gtk2, it's in  
/usr/local/share/examples/ruby18/gtk2.

Today, I have tested ruby-opengl and ruby-gnome2-all  
(ruby-gtk2/ruby-gnome2), they work great with this new patch and FreeBSD  
5.x.

Cheers,
Mezz
