This worked great!  Thanks so much.

Just to let you guys know that, unfortunantely, taking out the
"-D__NO_ISOCEXT" did not solve the problem:

gcc -DIMPORT -DNT -g -O2  -fpermissive -DWIN32 -Iinclude -I. -IC:/msys/1.0/h

I did not try out Lyle's suggestion, since the other one worked =)  One more
question, are FXRuby versions ONLY compatible with their equivalent
versions?  For example if I use FXRuby-1.0.17, does that mean I can ONLY use
it with Fox version 1.0.17, or is it ok to use newer versions like 1.0.28?
(so far 1.0.28 seems to work fine with FXRuby-1.0.17)

Thanks,
