Doh, I just realized I forgot to update the version of Gem included in  
the Windows installer.  Its still 0.91. I updated it to 0.92.3 and  
will post an updated release.

As for your issue, Gem is included, its just an old version.  It  
should load, it sounds like the machine your are on does not let you  
save your preferences.  The libraries to load at pd start time are  
saved in the registry, so if you can write to the registry, none of  
the libraries will be loaded automatically.  You can still load them  
using [import] in your patch, like [import Gem].
