I can compile it but I get the following warning message: ***************************************************************************** ** ** PTHREAD SUPPORT MODE WARNING: ** ** Ruby is compiled with --enable-pthread, but your Tcl/Tk library ** seems to be compiled without pthread support. Although you can ** create the tcltklib library, this combination may cause errors ** (e.g. hangs or segmentation faults).
