Subject: Error While Install Gem

I am trying to install Mechanize on a WinXP machine, and I am getting
this error:

ERROR: Failed to build gem native extension

ruby extconf.rb install mechanize
extconf.rb:3:in ``': No such file or directory - uname -p
(Errno::ENOENT) from extconf.rb:3

Googling results only in solutions for linux distros... on linux the
problem is that the ruby development libraries are not installed, where
am I supposed to find these for Windows? On OS X i would have typed sudo
apt-get dev-1.8 or something, but what do I do on WinXP?
