heroku crashes with JSON error

I am going through the rails tutorial from railstutorial.org and I have hit a stumbling block.

My versions are thus:

I get this error when I run any heroku command (heroku create, heroku keys:add etc.) 

C:/RailsInstaller/Ruby1.8.7/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/json-1.5.1-x86-mingw32/lib/js
on/ext/parser.so: [BUG] Segmentation fault
ruby 1.8.7 (2011-02-18 patchlevel 334) [i386-mingw32]

I noticed that some people were talking about incompatibility between heroku and json, so I uninstalled json 1.5.1 and installed json 1.4.6 instead.

I then get the error:

C:/RailsInstaller/Ruby1.8.7/lib/ruby/site_ruby/1.8/rubygems.rb:861:in `report_ac
tivate_error': RubyGem version error: json(1.4.6 not ~> 1.5.1) (Gem::LoadError)
        from C:/RailsInstaller/Ruby1.8.7/lib/ruby/site_ruby/1.8/rubygems.rb:255:
in `activate'
        from C:/RailsInstaller/Ruby1.8.7/lib/ruby/site_ruby/1.8/rubygems.rb:290:
in `activate'
        from C:/RailsInstaller/Ruby1.8.7/lib/ruby/site_ruby/1.8/rubygems.rb:289:
in `each'
        from C:/RailsInstaller/Ruby1.8.7/lib/ruby/site_ruby/1.8/rubygems.rb:289:
in `activate'
        from C:/RailsInstaller/Ruby1.8.7/lib/ruby/site_ruby/1.8/rubygems.rb:1204
:in `gem'
        from C:/RailsInstaller/Ruby1.8.7/bin/heroku:18

Any ideas? Thanks

I am not sure whether to answer this myself, as the problem has not actually been resolved, but I got onto Heroku and they asked me to try the previous version using this code:

gem install heroku --pre

So it seems to be a bug in the latest version of the gem (?)
