Subject: Problems with Net::HTTPS in ruby-1.8.0-preview3

I'm having trouble using Net::HTTPS/ossl-0.2.0-pre2 with the 1.8.0-preview3:

------------------
    #!/local/bin/ruby

    require 'net/https'

    def Main

        http = Net::HTTP.new('www.cise.ufl.edu', 443)

        http.use_ssl = true
        p http.use_ssl

        http.get2("/") { |r|
            p r.body
        }

    end

    Main()
------------------

    <jfh@waterspout:~/scratch> 462 : ./www.rb 
    /usr/local/lib/ruby/site_ruby/1.8/net/https.rb:113: warning: toplevel 
    constant HTTPRequest referenced by Net::NetPrivate::HTTPRequest
    /usr/local/lib/ruby/site_ruby/1.8/net/https.rb:113: undefined superclass 
    `HTTPRequest' (TypeError)
        from ./www.rb:3:in `require'
        from ./www.rb:3

Any ideas? This works fine with ruby 1.7.2 (2002-04-18) and ossl-0.1.0. 

Testing platforms:

    Solaris 8       ruby-1.7.2       ossl-0.1.0        : success
    Solaris 8       ruby-1.8.0-pre3  ossl-0.2.0-pre    : fail
    FreeBSD 4.8     ruby-1.8.0-pre3  ossl-0.2.0-pre    : fail
