Do you not get those issues using msvc compiled?  What about mingw 
compiled 1.8.6?

There was a recent thread on rubyinstaller about it, with nobody going 
deep enough to actually determine what's going on :) (the subject had to 
do with GCC 4.3).

I know that one bug was fixed for me re: rb_w32_select not selecting on 
"lotsa fd's" but I'd imagine that's unrelated.
