I don't know if it is expected but the new default compilation flags 
result in a much larger size for binary extension.

On MSYS/MinGW, the configure script for ruby-1.9.1-p378 generates the 
default CFLAGS as : -O2 -g -Wall -Wno-parentheses

For ruby-1.9.2-preview3, the default CFLAGS is :
-O3 -g -Wall -Wno-unused-parameter -Wno-parentheses -Wpointer-arith 
-Wwrite-strings -Wno-long-long

For the wxRuby binary (the .so file after a strip --strip-all), the size 
has increased by more than 50%.

Otherwise, ruby-1.9.2-preview3 seems to work fine with wxRuby.
So I've not filed a bug report in Redmine.
