May be I did something wrong. I have not been able to run fcgi, and yes, 
I did try your sample script. So, I test using 'irb' if there are error ...

% irb
LoadError: No such file to load -- fcgi
from 
c:/apps/ruby/ruby-1.8/lib/ruby/site_ruby/1.8/rubygems/loadpath_manager.rb:5:in 
`require__'
from 
c:/apps/ruby/ruby-1.8/lib/ruby/site_ruby/1.8/rubygems/loadpath_manager.rb:5:in 
`require' from (irb):1
irb(main):002:0>

Any idea?
