Hi.
I have tested pre1.
When I built LimeChat, it showed these messages in the build log:
Building ZeroLink launcher /Users/psychs/svn/limechat/trunk/build/Debug/LimeChat.app/Contents/MacOS/LimeChat (1 warning)
warning can't open dynamic library: @executable_path/../Resources/libruby.1.dylib referenced from: /Library/Framework/RubyCocoa.framework/RubyCocoa (checking for undefined symbols may be affected) (No such file or directory, errno = 2)
And then, I copied LimeChat.app to /Applications and executed it.
It showed the warning:
/Applications/LimeChat.app/Contents/Resources/resolver.rb:8:in `resolve': Ruby threads cannot be used in RubyCocoa without patches to the Ruby interpreter
It seems that the patched libruby is not linked successfully.

I agreed.
But I think we should not overwrite libruby.1.dylib.
I suggest we should install a new file and
if /usr/lib/libruby.1.dylib is a symbolic link:
remove it and make a new symbolic link to the patched libruby.
else if /usr/lib/libruby.1.dylib exists:
rename it to another file name and make a new symbolic link to the patched libruby.
The script might be:
if [ -L /usr/lib/libruby.1.dylib ]; then
rm /usr/lib/libruby.1.dylib
elif [ -e /usr/lib/libruby.1.dylib ]; then
mv /usr/lib/libruby.1.dylib /usr/lib/libruby.1.dylib.original
fi
ln -s /usr/lib/libruby.1.dylib.with_thread_patch /usr/lib/libruby.1.dylib
Pros.:
1. Users can revert the change by themself if they don't want it.
2. Both applications and ruby scripts will work with the patched libruby.
