OpenSSL required for Ruby 1.8.2 in Windows?

I was running into non-catastrophic problems when trying to run Ruby 1.8.2 on a Windows XP box, after I'd disabled the OpenSSL support in the installation wizard. Executing any commands in DOS would run, but only after clearing an error dialog saying Windows couldn't find SSLEAY32.dll.

It was a nuisance, so reinstalling Ruby and turning OpenSSL on (even though I don't need it for production purposes) cleared it right up.
