Subject: Can't get MP3Tag to work...

I hate coming to the list for silly stuff such as this, but has
anyone been able to get MP3Tag.rb to work on Windows?

Reading tags works fine.  I have the following code:

====
#!c:/ruby/bin/ruby.exe

require 'mp3tag.rb'

print "before commit: "
tag = Mp3Tag.new("tmp.mp3")
puts tag.comment

tag.comment = "XXX"
print "set: "
puts tag.comment
tag.commit

print "after commit: "
tag = Mp3Tag.new("tmp.mp3")
puts tag.comment
===


When run on a file containing a tag with a comment of "Existing
comment" yields:

before commit: Existing comment
set: XXX
after commit: Existing comment


Ruby -v says:
ruby 1.7.3 (2002-11-17) [i386-mswin32]



The file is not changed (according to its timestamp), and several mp3
utilities do show that the tag isn't changed.  

Mp3Tag.rb is v 1.0.  Anything I can do to check this?  The f.write()
code in there IS getting executed, and the packed string it's trying
to write looks correct to me; it has the right value.  It just seems
the write isn't ... actually writing.

Thoughts?
