Just out of curiosity, why did you choose to update to 1.8.6-p230 instead of the most recent stable release 1.8.7-p22? The ruby site says about 1.8.7 -
The new version of Ruby includes many bug fixes, lots of feature enhancements back ported from 1.9 and some performance improvements since 1.8.6 while maintaining stability and backward compatibility with the previous release to a high degree. See the bundled documentation for details about compatibility issues. The ChangeLog is at http://svn.ruby-lang.org/repos/ruby/tags/v1_8_7/ChangeLog The Dos related patches are included in this 1.8.7 version as well.
