Ugly bug with one-click installer and postgres-pr

postgres-pr 0.4.0
Ruby one-click installer, p3

I'm getting a rather ugly bug when I try to connect to a PostgreSQL
database using the one click installer. Any ideas?

I do NOT see this behavior with a hand built 1.8.4. Compiler issue?
How that would make a difference with a pure Ruby driver I'm not sure,
but it seems to.

I tracked this down into readbytes.rb, which is a standard ruby library.
It is where a 1 (Fixnum) gets passed in. I tried putting rescu around
it an
hard coding in the 1 but that also fails.
That is very strange because IO.read should take a 1.
