The patch didn't help. After some more investigation, I found that installing official i386 ruby1.8 packages fixed the test failure, and in fact if I rebuild ruby1.8 locally adding "-fno-strict-aliasing" to the CFLAGS, the rebuilt packages also fix the test failure. So this looks like it's a bug in ruby with bad code violating the strict-aliasing rules. (And you should probably be able to reproduce the bug if you wish by rebuilding ruby1.8 and installing the resulting packages.) So I guess we should either reassign this to ruby1.8, or file a new bug and block this one with the new one. -- Daniel Schepler
