Hi,

I agree that it's best to use the installed ruby .so if you can, but in this
case normal ruby isn't ideal.  The philosophical problem is that the security
model is wrong for level scripting (where the scripts might be hostile) as it's
aimed at web sites (where everything except the scripts might be hostile).  The
practical problem is that game relies on the way this version of ruby does
things a bit too much.  From a developer point of view it's useful to know
exactly what code you're dealing with on all platforms (Windows, Mac OS X,
Linux, etc.) to reduce the number of test configurations.  Security problems are
less of an issue because the game never opens a socket.  In practice what I'll
do is pull later versions of ruby into the upstream as necessary, test it, and
then re-release.
