Subject: FreeRIDE - Debug mode hangs

I am just getting started with RUBY.  I downloaded the latest release
(ruby184-16p3.exe) for windows.  I created a simple hello world
program.  It ran it in run mode.

def say_goodnight(name)
  result = "Good night, #{name}"
  return result
end

puts say_goodnight('Pa')

It ran fine.  I tried to run it in debug mode and it hangs.  When I
kill the task it give me the following info.

c:/ruby/lib/ruby/1.8/drb/drb.rb:563:in `read': Invalid argument

I looked at the code and I don't see what is causing this.  I disabled
the firewall.

Any ideas?
