Hi Thomas, Firstly, well done compiling Ferret on Windows and thanks for posting this. The reason I haven't yet released a win32 gem is that I'm still trying to work out the String#dump issue which is wreaking havoc when people try and use Ferret with Rails on Windows. I suspect this issue of yours is somehow related. I'll let you know as soon as I find a solution.
