Sorry, but I have't got to be sure that ruby with -pthread enabled
works flawlessly.  Do you?  I'll do some more tests this weekend on my
FreeBSD 5.x box.  If it goes fine, I'll happily enable it by default.

On the other hand, I still believe ruby with -pthread enabled does
coredump on FreeBSD 4.x when combined with a certain kind of external
libraries, so we can only enable it on FreeBSD >=5.x.  What is your
suggestion with ruby_r vs. FreeBSD 4.x?
