Ruby 1.9 on XP using mingw/msys

Hello all,

I posted earlier asking how to compile Ruby 1.9 on a win32 system using
msys/mingw. After a lot of searching, this is how I succeeded:

- - Download mingw, msys AND msys developer kit (containing perl and
autoconf)
- - autoconf the Ruby source
- - make the Ruby source (eventually rename y_tab.c to y.tab.c and type
make again...)

voilà. I will be happy to give more detailed instructions to anyone
interested.

best regards,
kaspar
