I see an include for yamlbyte.h in yaml2byte.c. Is this a dynamically
generated file of some sort? Because I don’t see it.

/usr/local/src/ruby-1.8.1/config.h:16:1: warning: "_FILE_OFFSET_BITS"
redefined

Wasn’t a patch submitted to fix this warning already? I seem to
remember it being submitted on the core list.

Thank you for the report. I just put preview2 at

ftp://ftp.ruby-lang.org/pub/ruby/1.8/ruby-1.8.1-preview2.tar.gz

md5sum is 067deb137b70d6ca046f6d7e9a84e198

Sorry about that (Matz and others). I was warned of these errors, but the
preview sort of snuck up all the sudden. Indeed, these should be fixed
presently.

Nice work on this preview release, matz. And everyone else out there: please
report Syck or YAML-related errors straightway to me.

It’s the purpose of previews, but I still should have told you the
preview release schedule. Sorry. We will have a few previews soon.
Then the final 1.8.1 release will be in two weeks or so.
