    I've got it down to just ruby. The link to
    malloc.conf that Larry suggested fixed gaim and a new
    cvsup and build have solved everything else, I think.
    I was hopping that portupgrade would be working too
    but no luck.

    (ruby), uid 0: exited on signal 6 (core dumped)

    I'll give it another try tomorrow. Thanks.
