My attempt to put this file in my PATH just generates a runtime error
which says that ruby.exe has made an attempt to load the C runtime
library incorrectly.  It shows an error code of "R6034".

I suspect that at some point, the Mongrel gem started getting compiled
with a newer version of the MS C compiler than I have (I have the
"free"
Visual Studio 2003 components).

I will try either:

1) Moving back versions of Mongrel until it works
2) Updating my C runtime.

It would be interesting to find out if the Mongrel gem did "rev up" on
the compiler version, though.
