...I guess it's obvious that the following code bit is where the  
failure is:

	post("(done)");
	if (!
	EVAL("begin require 'gridflow'; true; rescue Exception => e;\
		STDERR.puts \"[#{e.class}] [#{e.message}]:\n#{e.backtrace.join'\n'} 
\"; false; end"))
	{
		post("ERROR: Cannot load GridFlow-for-Ruby (gridflow.so)\n");
		return;
	}

...since I'm getting "[LoadError]...", I'm guessing that the linked  
ruby 1.9 just can't find gridflow.so, even though it's in the same  
directory?  I don't know if this can be fixed by changing ruby, or  
maybe doing "begin require './gridflow'..."?
