I just tried the Win32 gem, but it complains that I do not have 
msvcr70.dll.  I do, however, have msvcr71.dll (in n ruby\bin dir), which 
I believe is what comes as part of the recent Ruby 1.8.4 Windows 1-click 
package.  (I also have msvcr71.dll  as part of  1-click installation on 
an other box with Ruby 1.8.2.)

But Mongrel seems to insist on a particular version (perhaps hardcoded 
in http11.so), so it won't run (unless , I imagine, I go dig up that 
specific DLL someplace).



Thanks,
