He said "It was because the version of ruby was old" in that page.
The script works well on my machine:

from /tmp/log:

pid=3653: start
pid=3677: (child) fork OK
pid=3653: (parent) child=3677
pid=3653: waitpid=#<Process::Status: pid=3677,exited(0)>
pid=3653: program exit

Please tell me the version of ruby.
Mine is:

$ ruby -v
ruby 1.8.2 (2005-01-06) [i386-linux]
