* Ruby contains some things generated by bison or such.It seems the generated parse.c file (from parse.y) is included in the tarballs as a service to workaround a bootstrap problem; generating the parser requires ruby. See also: https://github.com/ruby/ruby/blob/master/common.mk#L910
See my other reply, and also:
Even if generating the .c from the .y from the Ruby code would be ideal, at least generating the .c from the .y (and using the pre-generated the .y) is still an improvement, it would at least help with the 'buggy bison' scenario.
Greetings,
Maxime.
