Continuing our pre-release of the RedCloth 4 gems.

  gem install RedCloth --source http://code.whytheluckystiff.net

Oh and my trouble with Gem::Platform::CURRENT is due to my
cross-compilation on Linux.  I need to force Gem::Platform::WIN32 so
that the gem will actually work after it's built.  I build the gem
on Linux, so the "x86-linux" platform is used and when I index the
gem repository, it throws an error.

So, am I okay to just change the windows gem spec like so?

Glad to know why WIN32 is necessary.  With WIN32, the rake aborts for
me...

So, what can we do that works with both?  I know next to nothing
about it.
