I tried to install Ruby 2.0.0dev (2011-12-15 trunk 34025) on Mac OSX Lion (10.7.2).

But I got ‘Segmentation Fault’ at linking miniruby.

The sequence I’ve tried is following:

$ autoconf
$ ./configure --prefix=$HOME/tmp/ruby --enable-shared
(snip)
$ make
(snip)
compiling dmyext.c
linking miniruby

    Try following steps.

    Find a gcc:

    $ ls /usr/bin/gcc-*
    

    Re-try with found gcc:

    $ autoconf
    $ CC=/usr/bin/gcc-4.2 ./configure --prefix=$HOME/tmp/ruby --enable-shared
    $ make
