Subject: Help Compiling Ruby 1.8.1

Things aren't going so well with Ruby's 1.8.1 source and VisualStudio6. Once
we get to the line:

H:\ruby-1.8.1\win32>nmake DESTDIR=temp install

Stop.


Any help greatly appreciated.

P.S. - if borlands' install for ruby is smoother then vc++ then i will use
that. =)
