Subject: [Q] Bug in Process.kill on win32?

I'm having serious troubles with Process.kill on 1.8.2 preview2 or
1.8.1. Whenever I try to issue a Process.kill(sig,pid) there is an
exception raised:

in kill: invalid argument (Errno::EINVAL)

I looked at the source code (rb_f_kill in signal.c) and it is *not* an
error that relates to the sig and pid arguments which are OK but it
looks like this is an error returned by the kill system call on Windows

Any idea why this doesn't work? (I'm using the Ruby one-click
installer compiled with VS C++ 7)

Thanks for your help

Laurent
