I am using version 0.3.2

Checked it 3 ways

1. irb - non-conclusive

C:\Documents and Settings\Owner>irb
irb(main):001:0> require 'win32/dir'
=> true
irb(main):002:0> Dir::VERSION
(irb):2: warning: toplevel constant VERSION referenced by Dir::VERSION
=> "1.8.6"

2. extra from rdoc on my system

Class Dir
In: lib/win32/dir.rb

Parent: Object

Methods
create_junction   empty?   junction?
Included Modules
Windows::Directory Windows::Shell Windows::Error Windows::File
Windows::DeviceIO
Constants
VERSION = '0.3.2'


3. gem list

C:\Documents and Settings\Owner>gem query -n win32-dir

*** LOCAL GEMS ***

win32-dir (0.3.2)
    Extra constants and methods for the Dir class on Windows.


It may have been placed in version 0.3.1 but it is not in version
0.3.2
