Just to make sure, are you running the autoconf
regeneration tool after
you change the configure.in files? Usually it is run
like this:
make -f admin/Makefile.common
If you are, check for any configure.in.in files. If
they exist they will
overwrite the configure.in file contents.
I found the problems.
One was mine. I changed the test of RUBY_VERSION_MINOR == 8 to RUBY_VERSION_MINOR >= 8.
The change was unnecessary and worse, in the wrong direction. Changing to <= succeeds
but >= fails everything. :)
The other is the include to version.h needs to be ruby/version.h for 1.9.1.
My new patch seems to succeed with my setup, which includes 1.9. I presume the patch will
still work correctly with 1.8, but somebody should test.
Patch uploaded to bug report 721 (
