Now, I am able to test it and ruby still need to add -pthread.

=========================================
% rbbr
/libexec/ld-elf.so.1: /usr/local/lib/libgthread-2.0.so.400: Undefined

When I added -pthread in ruby's LDFLAGS and this problem went away. I  
noticed that ruby has '--enable-pthread' option and I don't know if it's  
any good with FreeBSD.

I think, it's best to do this one later after FreeBSD 4.11 released.
