Given the amount of work I do with DRb, I second this motion. I *do* prefer
building my own Ruby from the source on Win32, so it would be nice if it was
already there. Although, I do confess it's not a real challenge for me to
obtain and install it separately.

(About the only thing I find challenging about Ruby is avoiding the "I have
the ultimate jack hammer so everything looks like a helpless nail to me"
syndrome... ;0) )
