Comment 3 for bug 413815

No, I don't see why you would do that. The best solution would be to build with "./configure --program-suffix=*extension you tend to build with with, for example, 1.9.1*" This is the best solution, let ruby do the work for you, rather then bypass what ruby has setup for you and try to hack on it yourself. And ./configure knows how rbconfig.rb should look better then either of us i would presume :-)
