Error installing 'gem install json --platform=ruby ' on Windows 7

When I run this command

C:\row\Ruby200\devkit>gem install json --platform=ruby --no-ri --no-rdoc

I get the error

make: *** [generator.o] Error 1


Gem files will remain installed in C:/row/Ruby200/lib/ruby/gems/2.0.0/gems/json-1.8.1 for inspection.
Results logged to C:/row/Ruby200/lib/ruby/gems/2.0.0/gems/json-1.8.1/ext/json/ext/generator/gem_make.out

What does this error mean and what can I do about it?
