Thanks, this helps. Indeed, the ruby configure script detects gar, but it allows to select "ar" by using the AR environment variable.
When I configure like this: ./configure --prefix=$HOME/ruby-31 --with-gcc AR=/usr/bin/ar then the "gar" errors disappear and it seems to do correctly: compiling builtin.c generating a glommed object with DTrace probes for static library linking static-library libruby-static.a I'll update the Ruby issue on the ruby website with this info.
