||| I tried building Ruby 1.6.2 with vanilla MSVC 6sp4 and could not get

	I didn't do anything except extract the src distro, cd into 
ruby-1.6.2/win32 and run the configure.bat file. I then made certain 
that my MSVC vars were set (vcvars32.bat in the MSVC/bin dir) and did an 
nmake. That was it. nmake test and then nmake DESTDIR=D:\Ruby and it was 
installed with no worries. I'm on Win2k, so I don't know if that makes a 
difference to what you are on. 

	If you can't get it to build, let me know and I can zip up the 
prod dir and send it to you.
