SEPARATOR doesn't work

[Robert.Koepferl]

Hi,
I'm using ruby-win32 1.6 and I'm trying to get the Path-separator ( eg. /
or \ ) to wirte protable programs

However

File.SEPARATOR
SEPARATOR
$SEPARATOR
Dir.SEPARATOR

all return nil. What's wrong

File.join(elt, elt, elt) is a handy way of achieving this
(where elt is a path element).
