RedCloth 4.1.0 doesn't work for WinXP

Maybe I'm wrong but for other versions you have a special mswin gem.
When I try to nmake it. This error appears:

You're right; the platform attribute of the gem was set wrong; the file was published on RubyForge, but when Windows users went to install, it wouldn't find the win32 gem. I've replaced the file on RubyForge with one that has the right platform set, so try again.

It still doesn't work.
I noticed that at Rubyforge 'http://rubyforge.org/frs/download.php/46638/RedCloth-4.1.0-x86-mswin32-60.gem' is unavailable.
At 'http://rubyforge.org/frs/?group_id=216&release_id=27853'
The windows gem is listed as a dmg.

Sorry about that. I've fixed it and hopefully it'll build the gem now. I'm going to leave the ticket open until it's confirmed working.

Excellent. I'll try not to let it happen again!
