WEBrick crashing

ruby 1.8.2 (2004-12-25) [i386-mswin32]
latest version of edge rails - patched to make the server work with
win32 (http://dev.rubyonrails.org/ticket/4139)

On some pages WEBrick is crashing with the following:

d:/programming/ruby/lib/ruby/1.8/profiler.rb:27: You have a nil object
when you
didn’t expect it! (NoMethodError)
You might have expected an instance of Array.
The error occured while evaluating nil.[] from
d:/programming/ruby/lib/rub
y/1.8/profiler.rb:5:in require' from script/server:7:in require’
from script/server:7

Any ideas on what’s happening, or tips on tracking this down would be
great.

Here’s the full output (not especially pretty formatted I’m afraid due
to wrap):
