Ruby 1.8.5-p12 released

[Urabe Shyouhei]

Hi all.

We released Ruby 1.8.5-p12, the latest stable version of Ruby. There are
several fixes made when 1.8.5 had not been branched yet. On this release
we backported them into 1.8.5.

Happy holiday.

And the good folks at Gentoo have put it in the Portage tree. I just
installed it (flawlessly, of course) on a P3.

Builds and installs OK on Mac OS X 10.3.9. I have a question though:
When I run "make test-all", it takes a very long time (I killed it
after 28 minutes) and some of the tests give errors (not failures). Is
this correct?

Thanks,
AdSR

On my linux box, I have no errors, but only 4 failures (like with 1.8.4):

Finished in 127.413555 seconds.

1) Failure:

2) Failure:
