I'm sorry to reply your message. Later, I posted [ruby-core:18257]. The
tasks maintainers should do is:

Perhaps thread_win32.c works correctly for bcc32. If it has some
problems, fix them.

Mohit, could you maintain Ruby 1.9 for bcc32? If so, try the trunk
version of Ruby, fix problems, and send a patch to ruby-core at first.
