[MacRuby-devel] new testing version available

[Laurent Sansonetti]

I just merged all changes from trunk into the testing branch:

- Updated the upstream sources with svn.ruby-lang.org.
- It is now possible to install MacRuby as a framework, by passing the  
--enable-framework option to ./configure.
- It is now possible to build MacRuby as a 2-way fat universal binary,  
by passing the --enable-fat-binary option to ./configure.
- Template and examples assume that you installed MacRuby as a  
framework in the default location, /Library/Frameworks.
- Fixed a bunch of bugs, and added a new small example (DotView).

I also updated the testing instructions in the wiki to mention the new  
build flags:

http://trac.macosforge.org/projects/ruby/wiki/InstallingMacRuby

I'm now working on a few more samples and also improving a little bit  
the test suite.
