=begin
As ((<reported elsewhere|URL:http://www.ruby-forum.com/topic/4408967>)), Ruby compiles fine the first time after extracting, but repeating it after a (({make distclean})) doesn't work.

The commands:

$ tar --extract --gzip --file ruby-1.9.3-p327.tar.gz
$ cd ruby-1.9.3-p327/
$ ./configure --prefix=$HOME/.rbenv/versions/1.9.3-p327 &> my-config.log
$ make &> my-make.log
$ make distclean
$ ./configure --prefix=$HOME/.rbenv/versions/1.9.3-p327 &> my-config2.log
$ diff my-config* && echo identical
identical
$ make &> my-make2.log

From the difference, it looks like at least some generated files are not deleted by (({make distclean})) - miniprelude.c being the first. Then ripper is not configured. And last it seems that .ext/i686-linux/-test-/ and subdirectories has been deleted but not regenerated.

I also ran into a problem when trying to build 327 on CentOS 6.2. It was having a problem with the following file missing:

../../../../.ext/x86_64-linux/-test-/array/resize.so

When I tried to build ruby I would get the following error:

make[2]: Entering directory /home/ruby-1.9.3-p327/ext/-test-/array/resize' linking shared-object -test-/array/resize.so /usr/bin/ld: cannot open output file ../../../../.ext/i686-linux/-test-/array/resize.so: No such file or directory collect2: ld returned 1 exit status make[2]: *** [../../../../.ext/i686-linux/-test-/array/resize.so] Error 1 make[2]: Leaving directory /home/ruby-1.9.3-p327/ext/-test-/array/resize'
make[1]: *** [ext/-test-/array/resize/all] Error 2
make[1]: Leaving directory `/home/ruby-1.9.3-p327'
make: *** [build-ext] Error 2

So I did the following:

mkdir ../../../../.ext
mkdir ../../../../.ext/x86_64-linux
mkdir ../../../../.ext/x86_64-linux/-test-
mkdir ../../../../.ext/x86_64-linux/-test-/array

I had to do this for each target in the -test- directory.

Upon further investigation, if you do the following in each of the failing directories it fixes the issue:

make -B

I ran into this issue on the following OSs:
OSX 10.8.2
CentOS 6.2

It worked find in Ubuntu.
