My comment is about using a Cygwin-compiled version of Ruby. Cygwin binaries are only “somewhat” compatible with normal Windows binaries.
I get frustrated anyone says that we should use cygwin Ruby, because it doesn’t even approach my needs.

Subj: unix and windows {Re: [ANN] ByteCodeRuby 0.1.3}
Hi,
It’s also bloody useless for trying to do any real Windows
programming.
I fully respect your efforts and the culture in this discussion group.
Unfortunately, I use Windows because of I need to, not because I love
Bill Gates.
Please don’t fight a holly war between unix and windows. Sorry if this
offend you.
Thanks
Shannon
