d/ruby-1.9.1_p243-i486-3.txz: Rebuilt.
Added an explicit –enable-pthread. This is mostly to make sure that we get
the expected option set from future releases of Ruby — it appears that not
only is –enable-pthread the default in ruby-1.9.1, but trying to use
–disable-pthread doesn’t work. Furthermore, Ruby and Tcl/Tk no longer work
together unless both Ruby and Tcl/Tk are compiled with thread support.
Compiling Tcl/Tk with thread support has caused some problems in the past.
If a threaded Tcl app tries to fork(), it will hang, but by now most affected
Tcl apps (such as eggdrop) should have patches available.
Anyway, this should fix the issues with Ruby and Tk. Please test it, and
report any other problems that arise.
tcl/tcl-8.5.8-i486-1.txz: Upgraded.
Compiled using –enable-threads, since Ruby requires it to work with Tk.
tcl/tclx-8.4-i486-3.txz: Rebuilt.
Recompiled using –enable-threads.
tcl/tix-8.4.3-i486-2.txz: Rebuilt.

tcl/tk-8.5.8-i486-1.txz: Upgraded.
Compiled using –enable-threads, since Ruby requires it to work with Tk.
