I need some help. Here's my current situation. # Under bash % tar xvfz ruby-vpi-17.0.0.tgz % rake # Rake is fine % export SIMULATOR=vcs % rake test (in /scratch/testing/ruby-vpi-17.0.0) rake -f hw5_unit_runner.rake vcs /usr/local/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/rake-0.7.3/lib/rake.rb:725: warning: Insecure world writable dir /scratch/testing in PATH, mode 040777 (in /scratch/testing/ruby-vpi-17.0.0/samp/pipelined_alu) vcs -R +v2k +vpi -load /scratch/testing/ruby-vpi-17.0.0/lib/ruby-vpi/../../obj/vcs:vlog_startup_routines_bootstrap hw5_unit.v /usr/local/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/rake-0.7.3/lib/rake.rb:725: warning: Insecure world writable dir /scratch/testing in PATH, mode 040777 Chronologic VCS (TM) Version X-2005.06-SP1-11 -- Fri Jul 27 15:45:19 2007 Copyright (c) 1991-2005 by Synopsys Inc.
