Subject: Re: Threading on Win32 - at an impasse

All right, just in case anyone googles this later on, I was able to
get my application working with the help of win32-process.  I used
separate processes instead of threads, because calling gets on stdin
seems to block all threads no matter what.

So it seems like separate processes are the way to go, at least until
Ruby 2.0 (or whenever it gets native threads).
