I get the following error when trying to compile ruby trunk:
[short version; long version below]
.ext/common/openssl/buffering.rb:1: unknown encoding name: binary (ArgumentError)

miniruby does not seem to know the 'binary' encoding, only 'ASCII-8BIT', as follows:

duerst@Arnisee /cygdrive/c/Data/ruby
$ ./miniruby -e 'puts String.new(encoding: "binary")'
-e:1:in initialize': unknown encoding name - binary (ArgumentError) from -e:1:in new'
from -e:1:in `'

duerst@Arnisee /cygdrive/c/Data/ruby
$ ./miniruby -e 'puts String.new(encoding: "UTF-8")'

duerst@Arnisee /cygdrive/c/Data/ruby
$ ./miniruby -e 'puts String.new(encoding: "ASCII-8BIT")'
