strace works well in cygwin.  Can't use it when launching the
one-click ruby, though.  The one click is making calls outside the
cygwin sandbox, and that make strace cranky -- i.e. errors out when
trying to start the ruby process

There is (or was) a version for windows NT. It had some BSOD problems,
and I'm afraid to try it out on my XP box. Something about feeding
Windows after midnight or getting it wet -- can't remember exactly
what that old Tibetan monk warned me about.
