FXRuby used to override raise(), but this was fixed in version 1.0.23 
(see the change history at http://www.fxruby.org/doc/changes.html). The 
PragProg installer for Ruby 1.6.8 bundles a pretty old version of 
FXRuby; you should probably update to one of the newer FXRuby versions 
for Ruby 1.6.8. See this page:
