Hello, I just put preview4 archive on the ftp server. I’m sure we still have problems left. Braves, try and find errors, on as many platforms as possible, please. ftp://ftp.ruby-lang.org/pub/ruby/1.8/ruby-1.8.0-preview4.tar.gz I will submit preview5 on Monday 8:00am UTC. The final 1.8.0 will be available on either 30th or 31st, as I hope. ``` matz. ``` p.s. To IA64 users: it is reported that you need to change optimize flag to "-O0" to compile on IA64 machines. ---

I notice code is compiled with -g and not stripped. Looking at 1.6.8 it seems to be the same, so I guess this is intentional.

Find below the results of building preview4 on HP-UX; I fiddled a bit with those (important!!) sha2 warnings and I have a feeling I’m missing something obvious.
