after installation to c:\installs\ruby_1_8_installed, I get an unusable ruby:

C:\installs\ruby_1_8_installed\bin>ruby -ve 'puts $:.inspect'
ruby 1.8.8dev (2010-04-08) [i386-mingw32]
["C:/installs/ruby_1_8_in", "C:/installs/ruby_1_8_installed/lib/", "C:/installs/ruby_1_", "C:/installs/ruby_1_8_inst", "C:/installs/ruby_1_8_installed/lib/ru", "C:/installs/ruby_1_8_", "C:/installs/r", "C:/installs/ruby_1_8_insta", "."]

Not sure why.
Thanks.

May be the same bug of Bug#... .... ah, I can't find it now :(
We (Japanese developers) discussed about it just few days ago.

In ruby.c;
#if defined _WIN32 || defined CYGWIN || defined DJGPP
static VALUE
rubylib_mangled_path(const char *s, unsigned int l)
{

change the first line as
#if 0
and test it, please.
