after your latest changes i had to mod the require in Qt.cpp to say 
Qt/Qt.rb in place of lib/Qt/Qt.rb. and now t1.rb works again!. 

actually. i'm using kde 3.1 here with just the interesting parts of 
head kdebindings package (smoke and qtruby) therefore, i'm guessing 
its quite possible to package up the ruby bindings. 

the tar.gz is 900kb and could probably be trimmed quite a bit more.

cheers!
