In reference to that /dev/urandom bug I encountered last week, I
thought I might try to build Ruby from source on Cygwin and see how it
works.
I downloaded Ruby 1.8.6-p111 off the ruby-lang.org website, unpacked
it, then ./configure and make. This fails with:
./missing/strftime.c:193: error: 'tim

Over on the comp.ruby.lang group, I got a reply from Matz, the lead
Ruby developer:
http://blade.nagaokaut.ac.jp/cgi-bin/scat.rb/ruby/ruby-talk/284495
He states: "The bug must lie between Cygwin and Ruby. We don't call
lseek explicitly. You can clearly see this by doing strace on Linux

Thanks for analyzing this. I'll take it up at comp.lang.ruby and see
what happens.

I came up with a simple Ruby snippet that reproduces the problem. I'd
appreciate it if other Cygwin users would try it. You can change the
"cause_failure = true" line to say false and it will run.
--urandom_test.rb--
# Test failure of reading /dev/urandom after failed require
# this method is
OK, I modified the Rails source code to add the puts statement just
above the statement that reads from /dev/urandom. I then ran strace
again and looked for the relevant section of the output. I trimmed out
the leading numeric stuff so I could run a diff on them.
Here is the output of the failing

I ran all the commands you suggested with no problems.

Can anyone running Cygwin and Ruby on Rails comment on this problem?
Create a Rails 2.0.2 application and see if it fails with this error:
No such file or directory - /dev/urandom
I filed a bug on Rails, please read for more details.
