That makes perfectly good sense but i unfortunately started selling a MacRuby 
app on the App Store 
for i386 and 64 bit machines. And a few people are experiencing this issue. I 
was just hoping
for a quick workaround to make them happy. And I would discontinue selling the 
32 bit version
on the next release.

But i can't see anything obvious other than rewriting all of my NSDate based 
code in Objective-C or
waiting for a fix. i include the MacRuby framework in my Pkg so that is 
possible.
