workarounds for ruby 1.8.6 segmentations faults
liquid_rails
I am running Rails 2.1.0 and ruby-1.8.6 (2008-06-20 patchlevel 230
[i686-linux]. I am experiencing the same segmentation faults that
several others are who are running this version or ruby. Can anyone
recommend a good workaround for these bugs until the Rails Core Team
puts out something official?
Thanks!

and Rails and have had no issues.
What exactly is throwing the seg faults?

I'll probably get smacked for this, but you could certainly try JRuby in
the meantime. We're not affected by those security issues and run Rails
2.1 fine...
Perhaps an opportunity to try something new?

will jruby support ruby1.9 and future ruby versions?

Possible roadblock: You're using native-code libraries that do not have
JRuby analogues.

Yes, we plan to start adding 1.9 features over the summer and into fall,
with final support being ready around 1.9.1 release time at Christmas.

wow, very cool indeed.
i'd like to test it on ramaze since ramaze is 1.9 ready.
thanks for jruby

So a possibly vulnerable -p114 or a non-working -p230, nice.
Hmm, I didn't see problems locally because the ebuild for p230
includes a rollback patch that reverts change 15856. We'll see what
the official fix is, hopefully it's soon.

For what it's worth, JRuby will support both 1.8 and 1.9 in the same
distribution:
➔ jruby -help
Usage: jruby [switches] [--] [programfile] [arguments]
-0[octal] specify record separator (, if no argument)
-a autosplit mode with -n or -p (splits $_ into $F)
..
--1.8 specify Ruby 1.8.x compatibility (default)
--1.9 specify Ruby 1.9.x compatibility
--version print the version

If it segfaults and you did not investigate why you should assume it
is also vulnerable, although probably to a different thing.
