Good news: I can no longer reproduce this using yesterday's CVS -HEAD. The
problem also seems to have disappeared when using this snapshot (in case you
can't easily build from source).

ftp://ftp.ruby-lang.org/pub/ruby/binaries/mswin32/ruby-1.9.0-20040402-i386-mswin32.zip

Perhaps you can verify this result, that would be helpful. This would mean
that it's not a win32ole issue but a Ruby problem that has recently been
fixed. Hopefully whatever the fix is makes it into 1.8.2.
