    Although they are no big deal for me, three of the most common Ruby
problems are Unicode, threads and performance. The third is not a real problem
for most people, and you can write Ruby extensions in C very easily for
extreme cases.

    I, personally, can't stand most of the build and install tools for Ruby,
they seem to be very hostile against repackagers (I'm a Debian Developer, part
of the Ruby modules packagers team).

    Perhaps others can add more things to this list...

    Regards,
