Indeed, ruby has recently begun segfaulting on a machine that I
upgraded. This is new since the last couple of weeks or so.
This particular application is a small stand-alone utility that polls
a database and sends some E-Mails (uses rmail, dbi, net/smtp/iconv,
and the database in question in PostgreSQL).
It seems to crash in Net::SMTP.start() somewhere (haven't debugged
more than this). I don't want to recompile without thread support
though.
Anyone know if this is being tracked/worked on/whatever somewhere?
