After looking at the logs, if there’s anything else I can check for, let me know!

We could change ruby-build to include --with-opt-dir=/usr/local on FreeBSD by default if no explicit --with-opt-dir was specified. That would take care of the problem temporarily. Future Ruby versions might fix this in their build process. What does everyone think about this?

Have you tried installing libreadline or readline-devel using the package manager for FreeBSD? It seems that might fix the problem
