Please ask the gem author of io-console:
http://rubygems.org/gems/io-console
https://github.com/nobu/io-console
Who pushed code that is broken for Windows.
He pushed a newer version of io-console based on the codebase of Ruby
2.0, and that might not work as expected.
Report that to Ruby itself too:

Nothing we can do about that, sorry.
