Subject: Ruby 1.8.6 P368 windows binaries

I currently have Ruby 1.8.5. After much discussion on another thread
about whether to upgrade to 1.8.7 and decided to go with 1.8.6 instead
due to chatter about potential 1.8.7 potential compatibility issues. So
to install 1.8.6, I grabbed the ruby-1.8.6-p368.zip off Ruby site. Upon
unzipping it, I discovered that it doesn't contain any Windows binaries,
so it appears that if I want this release, I need to build it (which I
have no clue how to do at this point).

The only release I can find with Windows binaries is
ruby-1.8.6-p287-i386-mswin32.zip. I know I could use the one-click
install which has P287 but it includes an older gem version than the one
I already installed on my system.

So my options are:
1) overwrite my current Ruby binaries with what's in p287 zip file
2) find the Windows libraries for p368 and use that instead, anyone know
where I can grab these?

Also, is it crucial to have p368 instead of p287? Thanks in advance for
your help.
