 Priority:  minor              |   Milestone:  MacRuby 0.5                         
Component:  MacRuby            |    Keywords:  gcd semaphore long long TIME_FOREVER
-------------------------------+--------------------------------------------
 Dispatch::TIME_FOREVER is 18446744073709551615 so it fits into a unsigned
 long long. When you call "wait" with TIME_FOREVER on a semaphore the
 function in gcd.h (l. 826) uses NUM2LL(time) to convert the time in to a
 signed long long which leads to
 {{{
 core:in `wait:': bignum too big to convert into `long long' (RangeError)
         from untitled:1:in `<main>'
 }}}

 I've seen this in MacRuby 0.5 beta 2
