I just tried it, and was impressed that it worked when I ran the
executible on the same system where I built it. That's something that I
haven't been able to get the open source Perl compiler to do.

But when I copied it from an XP Pro SP2 box to an XP Embedded SP0 box, it
ran for a few moments and then died with a segmentation fault. On
repeated attempts, it died intermittently in two different places in
watir.rb.

I guess it's too much of a stretch to expect to run it on a different
flavor of Windows.
