Bug #2077: Patch for issue 1337 is incomplete/does not work as intended
http://redmine.ruby-lang.org/issues/show/2077

Author: Diego E. Pettenò
Status: Open, Priority: Normal
ruby -v: ruby 1.8.7 (2009-06-12 patchlevel 174) [x86_64-linux]

The patch in issue 1337 does not take into consideration data install, which also fails when using make -jN install.

At the same time, the idea of the patch is not really correct: depending directly on a directory in make gives you some not-so-expected behaviour (see http://blog.flameeyes.eu/2009/08/02/for-a-parallel-world-theory-lesson-n-3-directory-dependencies for more information about the issue).

The attached patch should solve the issue properly (needs reverting of the previous one, though).
