rbtree tests fail on 1.8.2, but not on 1.8.4

[Toby DiPasquale]

Hi all,

I dug up the rbtree 0.1.3 tarball from the RAA cache and am trying to
build it. It builds fine, but the tests fail. Unfortunately for me, this
test is indicative of the exact functionality I require.

What's wierd is that the test fails on ruby 1.8.2, but it passes on ruby
1.8.4. Does anyone have any ideas about why this would occur and what I
can do about it (other than just moving up to 1.8.4...) ?

Output from attempt with 1.8.2:

i can confirm the above at least... may have time later to look into it.


more later...
