ruby-core

In case Apple decides to go to Ruby 1.8.0 for Mac OS X 10.3, it might be
nice to have tk "just work". There are three problems:

1. Mac OS X 10.2 doesn't come with tcl/tk, you have to download it from
Apple. Hopefully they'll fix this.
2. Mac OS X doesn't keep tcl/tk where other Unixes do. Hopefully they won't
fix this if they want to use this patch ;-)
3. Tk only works if started from a .app bundle. Hopefully they'll fix this.

I've posted detailed copy-and-pasteable information about getting around
point 3 here:

where you can also see an earlier patch I don't think I like as much as the
one here. What does the panel think?
