(see CHANGES.pkgsrc file).
- Merge databases/ruby-dbm, devel/ruby-zlib, security/ruby-digest and
ruby-openssl, conflicting with these packages.
- Better handling for RI directories.
- Use pkgsrc's TOOLS framework.
- Correct case statement moving "interix3*)" to before "interrix*)" since
"interix3*)" wouldn't match and always match to "interix*)".
- Remove "interix3*" in the case condition which always "interix*" pattern.
This dosen't fix anything bulding on Interix3 (SFU 3.5) and on other
platforms, but fix obvious mistake in configure script.
