gitjour, dnssd bus error

i run macports ruby 1.8.7 and tried to use gitjour. after installing, it would bus error with:

/opt/local/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/dnssd-0.7.0/lib/rdnssd.bundle: [BUG] Bus Error ruby 1.8.7 (2008-08-11 patchlevel 72) [i686-darwin9]

k, so i went to that bundle and otool -L rdnssd.bundle told me:

rdnssd.bundle:
/System/Library/Frameworks/Ruby.framework/Versions/1.8/usr/lib/libruby.1.dylib (compatibility version 1.8.0, current version 1.8.6)
/usr/lib/libSystem.B.dylib (compatibility version 1.0.0, current version 111.1.1)
/usr/lib/libgcc_s.1.dylib (compatibility version 1.0.0, current version 1.0.0)

that link to osx's built-in ruby didn't look right. it should be linked to my macports libruby in /opt/local/lib. so, i went into the ext dir and checked out the makefile. everything looked proper. so i just tried a sudo make clean; sudo make again and ended up with a new dnssd.bundle, which now otool reports:

rdnssd.bundle:
/opt/local/lib/libruby.dylib (compatibility version 1.8.0, current version 1.8.7)
/usr/lib/libSystem.B.dylib (compatibility version 1.0.0, current version 111.1.2)
/usr/lib/libobjc.A.dylib (compatibility version 1.0.0, current version 227.0.0)
/usr/lib/libgcc_s.1.dylib (compatibility version 1.0.0, current version 1.0.0)

much better. so, i dropped that rdnssd.bundle back into the lib dir (overriding the one that was compiled there) and now:

$ gitjour
Serve up and use git repositories via Bonjour/DNSSD.
Usage: gitjour  [name]
list      Lists available repositories.
clone     Clone a gitjour served repository.
serve     Serve up the current directory via gitjour.
Optionally pass name to not use pwd.

awesome. i can play with gitjour now.
