Right. And unless the Visual C++ project file that comes with the FOX  
source distribution already has this flag set, I'm not compiling FOX  
that way (i.e. for the binary distribution of FXRuby for Windows).  
Anyways, I just need to check into this one and see what's what. I've  
added it to my bug list until it's resolved.
