[MacRuby-devel] MacRuby 0.5 beta

[Laurent Sansonetti]

Jordan,

Users should not need to obtain and install LLVM. MacRuby uses it  
statically. There was a mistake in the installer, we forgot to bundle  
llc (LLVM compiler tool) used by macrubyc, this will be fixed in the  
upcoming nightly builds then in the next beta.
