This is exactly what I was wondering about.

Could this problem be related to the operating system in any way? I 
forgot to mention I'm running ruby on Windows 2000.

A simple way to see this problem is entering the following code in irb 
(using Windows):

  require 'fox'
  include Fox
  FXFileStream.open ("test", FXStreamSave) { |stream| }

Then trying to delete the file with the Explorer will raise a "sharing 
violation" (I can't give you the exact error message, I have a German 
Windows installed).
This seems odd to me as the file should be closed after the block.

Maybe someone can check if this is happening on your Ruby as well?

Thanks,
Thomas
