Commenting those 2 function on either file will solve the problem. This problem already solved on Ruby.1.9.1, so there will be no such problem compiling and installing that version of ruby on Snow Leopard. Just in case you found similar problem and you NEED to use 1.9.0.0, then above solution will solve it. Just for my personal record anyway.
