I had the same problem with you mike, what I did is I downloaded a
stable-snapshot version of ruby, then I copy the missing/strftime.c file to
hte 1.8.6 version, run make again, then it now all works.
This worked for me too. Both the

Looks like a bug in ruby. First of all, this works fine under Cygwin:
Thanks for analyzing this. I'll take it up at comp.lang.ruby and see
what happens.

Over on the comp.ruby.lang group, I got a reply from Matz, the lead
Ruby developer:

He states: The bug must lie between Cygwin and Ruby. We don't call
lseek explicitly. You can clearly see this by doing strace on Linux

Well, /dev/urandom certainly exists in Cygwin. I'm not a Ruby expert, but

look somewhere in the Ruby code. But you can try running the original

Can you access /dev/urandom outside of ruby? It might be a simpler

I ran all the commands you suggested with no problems.

OK, I modified the Rails source code to add the puts statement just
above the statement that reads from /dev/urandom. I then ran strace
again and looked for the relevant section of the output. I trimmed out
the leading numeric stuff so I could run a diff on them.
Here is the output of the failing
