Okay, at last, I'm making some headway on this!  Thanks for sticking
it out, Seth.  These times have been hard for you, but you are doing
great work and for that I am very appreciative.

The problems turned out to be, well, MANY.  Basically, the glue I
was using between RubyGems, mkmf and Shoes was just flimsy.  And, on
top of that, the Hpricot gem has problems I need to look at.  At any
rate, I've checked in some changes and taken a completely different,
but much more reliable approach.

This shouldn't effect Windows users, but I haven't tested on OS X
yet.  Time to do that.
