Comment:

 The problem seems to be fixed in trunk as of r3858. This version of
 MacRuby features thread-safe regexps.

 I had to change the sample code though to use performRubySelector: though.
 Calling some Ruby selectors that have negative arities (like #match) using
 the ObjC ABI does not work.

 {{{
     id match = [regex performRubySelector:@selector(match:) withArguments:
 line, NULL];
 }}}
