I needed ragel for building harfbuzz from its git repo (so that I could submit 
some patches).  I chose the development version because that's what Fedora 
packages.  The description is just the first paragraph of 
http://www.colm.net/open-source/ragel/.  But the build does support several 
languages that aren't mentioned there.
