Ruby stuck on binutils fixes



Hi there,

I just made a run on Ruby, but it seems our broken binutils are playing
bad on us. Latest binutils in CVS will hopefuly fix this, but see
http://people.debian.org/~rmh/gnu-freebsd/tasks/binutils

Juan, you said you were going to play with CVS binutils, did you have
any success?

Ruby breakage follows: (see patch in bug #197993 also)

  $ gcc main.o -L. -lruby -ldl -lcrypt -lm  -o ruby
  $ ldd ruby
          libdl.so.2 => /lib/libdl.so.2 (0x2804d000)
          libcrypt.so.1 => /lib/libcrypt.so.1 (0x28051000)
          libm.so.1 => /lib/libm.so.1 (0x2807e000)
          libc.so.1 => /lib/libc.so.1 (0x2809f000)
          /lib/ld.so.1 => /lib/ld.so.1 (0x00000000)
  $ LD_LIBRARY_PATH=. ./ruby
  ./ruby: relocation error: ./ruby: undefined symbol: ruby_init

"ruby" should have libruby.so in its library dependencies, but it doesn't.

let's just blame ld :>
