Description

On my Win7 System in an MSYS/MinGW-environment (more precisely the 'mingw-builds' version) I have been trying to compile Ruby 2.1 from source.
I unpacked and entered:

configure --prefix=/c/path/to/my/ruby/install
make

The first ran well, the second aborted with the error message:

generating miniprelude.c
executable host ruby is required. use --with-baseruby option.
uncommon.mk:929: recipe for target `miniprelude.c' failed
make: *** [miniprelude.c] Error 1"

I tried the same for Ruby 2.0. Here the same proedure runs fine.
