Hello

I'm cloned the git repository, and I've even written a patch, but it's
untested as I don't seem to be able to run a development version. The
error I get is:

$ ruby -Ilib -Ilib/sup -w bin/sup
./lib/sup/thread.rb:256: undefined method `bool_reader' for
Redwood::ThreadSet:Class (NoMethodError)
       from /usr/lib/ruby/1.8/rubygems.rb:11:in `require'
       from /usr/lib/ruby/1.8/rubygems.rb:11
       from bin/sup:3:in `require'
       from bin/sup:3

bool_reader does exist in lib/sup/util.rb

I am running Ubuntu (10.10/maverick) and have the sup-mail package
installed. The installed sup works fine.

$ ruby --version
ruby 1.8.7 (2010-06-23 patchlevel 299) [x86_64-linux]

I'm wondering if my ruby paths are part of the problem. You might have
noticed that I specified -I lib -I lib/sup above. If I miss out the
second include I get:

$ ruby -Ilib  bin/sup
/usr/lib/ruby/1.8/sup/poll.rb:31: undefined method `[]' for
nil:NilClass (NoMethodError)
       from /usr/lib/ruby/1.8/rubygems/custom_require.rb:31:in
`gem_original_require'
       from /usr/lib/ruby/1.8/rubygems/custom_require.rb:31:in `require'
       from ./lib/sup.rb:341
       from /usr/lib/ruby/1.8/rubygems/custom_require.rb:31:in
`gem_original_require'
       from /usr/lib/ruby/1.8/rubygems/custom_require.rb:31:in `require'
       from bin/sup:15

Here ruby has picked up the sup/poll.rb from the installed version
rather than the checked out version. Adding -w to this version gives a
few warnings that I don't get when using -Isup/lib:

$ ruby -Ilib  -w bin/sup

       from /usr/lib/ruby/1.8/rubygems/custom_require.rb:31:in `require'
       from bin/sup:15

I've looked at the code, but the bool_reader is something messing
about with modules and classes at a deep-ish level and is beyond my
ruby understanding.

Any ideas appreciated.
