Description

The following commit added a usage of the pthread_setname_np() function on Darwin to set the timer thread name: https://github.com/ruby/ruby/commit/09c96a7858955f2b94238bd4bf38729f0d650f22

This function isn't available in all OS X versions; it was first added in 10.6. As a result, ruby will fail to compile on older OS X releases.

I am also experiencing this issue.

There are still many Apple Xserve running OS X 10.5.8 (darwin 9.8) in production.
