Mmmm. I think embedders who want to use VS2005 or later to compile
Ruby and their programs.

I did a little further looking, and I'm a little disheartened by the
build process in Windows and I'd like to try to figure out what we
could do to significantly improve it -- or maybe see if I can find the
build script(s) used by usa to build everything in the ruby-mswin32
download. Currently, the Windows installer downloads zlib separately
and compiles it. I haven't looked much further, but I suspect that it
does the same with a couple of other "built-in" libraries. I really
want to be able to build these libraries from an unpacked tarfile, and
am not sure where to go from here.
