1. Download the 1.8.6p230 source here: 
http://www.ruby-lang.org/en/news/2008/06/20/arbitrary-code-execution-vulnerabilities/

2. Download the patch here (and and stick it in the ruby-1.8.6-p230 
source directory): http://dev.smartleaf.com/misc/p230_fixit_patch.txt

3. In your terminal:
$ cd ruby-1.8.6-p230
$ patch < ./p230_fixit_patch.txt

4. Then compile per usual.  Ex:
$ ./configure
$ make
$ sudo make install
