Summary: Problem with wxruby gem in windows

Initial Comment:
my setup:
  windows xp sp2
  ruby 1.8.6
  gem 0.9.5
  wxruby 1.9.2

i installed wxruby using rubygems
  gem install wxruby

then i tried

C:\ruby>ruby -rubygems -e ''require "wx"''
c:/ruby/lib/ruby/site_ruby/1.8/rubygems/custom_require.rb:27:in `gem_original_re
quire'': no such file to load -- wx (LoadError)
        from c:/ruby/lib/ruby/site_ruby/1.8/rubygems/custom_require.rb:27:in `re
quire''
        from -e:1  ruby

long story short, in order to make wxruby work in my system i had to

- change wxruby directory instalation from "wxruby-1.9.2-x86-mswin32"
to "wxruby-1.9.2-mswin32"
- open file "wxruby-1.9.2-x86-mswin32.gemspec" and change the line 
	s.platform = %q{i386-mswin32}
  to
    s.platform = %q{mswin32}

i dont know if this is a issue of my machine or a general problem with wxruby
windows gem.
