I haven't seen that, specifically, but I haven't tried in over a year to compile with VS2005 (and have even less incentive to do so now that my primary machine is a Mac). I wouldn't be surprised if something was linked in that used a different C runtime, which is the number one problem with even thinking about using VS2005. I need to bug the folks at MS again and get them talking with people who actually care about this problem any longer. (Curt, if you're reading this, I'd say that MinGW is your best option at this point. I've heard nothing from them since RubyConf.) -austin -- Austin Ziegler * halostatue@gmail.com * http://www.halostatue.ca/ * austin@halostatue.ca * http://www.halostatue.ca/feed/ * austin@zieglers.ca
