This is very strange since the NORETURN macro is defined by ruby-devel (for gcc it amounts to __attribute__((noreturn)) )
I just checked in my RHEL5 build root, and it's set to a noop in ruby.h if it is not defined by config.h
This is with ruby-devel-1.8.5-5.el5 .. which version of ruby-devel are you using ? Can you grep for NORETURN in ruby.h and config.h ? They are in /usr/lib/ruby/1.8/i386-linux
