Ok, I see. Then we would have four different build methods:

Not shell script (I wouldn't know how to get it working, don't know shell well
enough). The Ruby is in a similar situation, but perhaps I can learn enough of
it to fix it (or someone can step up, it probably works now thanks to your
efforts). I know enough Makefile to fix that up too if needed.

Same here for me with shell scripts. I almost hate shell scripts as bad
as makefiles. You don't have to worry about the Ruby script. I created
that one, and it already works for at least Mac OS X. Hopefully it
already works on the other platforms.
The reason I created the Ruby script was the chicken and egg problem. I
wanted to build the latest version of Tango, they had changed the build
script to be written in D. There was no pre-compiled binary for Mac OS X
and the build script used the latest version of Tango.
I think Ruby is a great scripting language and it's installed out of the
box on Mac OS X.
So, any issues with Ruby script, just let me know.
