+ AUTHOR: knu@FreeBSD.org
+
+ The slippery pthread support for systems prior to 502102 has been
+ dropped and lang/ruby16_r and lang/ruby18_r ports have been removed,
+ since no one seems to appreciate the partially working solution.
+
+ Good news is that the pthread support of lang/ruby18 is now enabled
+ by default for newer systems, which means the ruby interpreter is
+ linked with libpthread. This will allow threaded extension
+ libraries to run and work properly on those systems.
