You do need bash to build ruby 2.0, but not any earlier

I had forgotten OpenBSD has SPARC and SPARC64 ports. I don't have any SPARC
boxes, sorry for missing the point here.
If SPARC64 builds become an issue I hope I can help in some way.

I will dust off my ss20 this weekend see if it powers up.
A SparcStation 20 is a relic for historical reference only. A cool
item and if it powers up I would be surprised. However it won't
make any more sense than to have a 1976 Ford truck as a daily

You are speaking out of turn, basically insulting people who want
