In case, that subject will not be correctly recognized by mail

I can confirm that bug still persist in recent VIM (7.2, Included
patches: 1-69).

I can confirm as well, that proposed patch fixes that (I have
modified this according Bram's proposal with initialization of
argc = 1 and removing typecasting).

Re: In Windows, :ruby command is not works around socket

 I found a ruby command's bug on Windows VIM.
 
 :ruby require 'open-uri'
 :ruby open('http://google.com/')
  = SocketError: `initialize': getaddrinfo: non-recoverable failure in
 name resolution.
 :ruby open('http://66.249.89.147')
  = vim dies
 
 In Windows, NtInitialize() should called when initializing Ruby.
 Otherwise, socket is never initialized.
 
 Here is patch.

Thanks for looking into this.

I don't include patches without knowing the name of the author.  If you
are scared you can mail me directly.

About this part:

#ifdef _WIN32
int argc;
char *argv[] = {gvim.exe};
NtInitialize(argc, (char***)argv);
#endif

I think argc should be set to 1.  Typecasting should not be needed for
argv.  How about this instead:

#ifdef _WIN32
int argc = 1;
char *argv[] = {gvim.exe};
NtInitialize(argc, argv);
#endif
