Subject: Building Ruby-1.8.4 on WinXP with MSVC++ 8.0

Hi!  I'm building Ruby-1.8.4 on WinXP SP2 using MSVC++ 8.0,
and first did the 'win32\configure.bat' and then typed nmake.
It makes a fair amount of progress until it gets to 'miniruby'
and then dies like so:

          cl -nologo main.obj dmydln.obj msvcr80-ruby18-static.lib oldnames.lib user32.lib advapi32.lib wsock32.lib  -Feminiruby.exe -link -incremental:no -debug -opt:ref -opt:icf
rbconfig.rb updated
         .\miniruby.exe ./win32/mkexports.rb -output=msvcr80-ruby18.def msvcr80-ruby18-static.lib
../win32/mkexports.rb:6: [BUG] Segmentation fault
ruby 1.8.4 (2005-12-24) [i386-mswin32]


This application has requested the Runtime to terminate it in an unusual way.
Please contact the application's support team for more information.
NMAKE : fatal error U1077: '.\miniruby.exe' : return code '0x3'
Stop.

Any ideas what I might be doing wrong?
Thanks!
