I have a 'kitchen sink' Cygwin installation from 2013-01-14. This gives
'rebase' errors when running the following command (taken from a
./configure script):
$ ruby -r mkmf -e 'exit(have_func("rb_hash_foreach") ? 0 : 1)'
checking for rb_hash_foreach()... 0 [main] ruby 3064

The 'rubyrebase' shell script (submitted to this list about a year ago)
came to my rescue:

Please could you consider adding this utility to our ruby package, in a
similar way to the 'perlrebase' script in Cygwin's perl. Further, would
it be possible to run 'perlrebase' and 'rubyrebase' during setup's post
install? The _autorebase package does a great job with executables, but
I understand that it doesn't work with ruby gems or perl modules.
Many thanks in advance for considering this.
Dave.
