I've just got QtRuby working on Mac OS X as it happens, after seeing the 
question on rubytalk last week. It might be best to set it up as a 
ProjectBuilder or XCode for the Mac so building and installing is a bit 
easier. I'm not sure how well autoconf/automake work on the Mac. But here's 
what I did:

- Installed ruby 1.8 via fink in /sw

- Built and installed Qt 3.3.2 in /Developer/qt

- Generated the smoke sources on Linux in kdebindings/smoke/qt and copied them 
to Mac OS X (I haven't tried generating them on Mac OS yet, but that should 
be no problem).

- I generated a Makefile (attached) to build the libsmokeqt.dylib via qmake 
from smokeqt.pro. 
$ qmake -makefile

- Build the smoke lib and install in /usr/lib, or create a symlink:
$ ln -sf <smoke dir>/libsmokeqt.dylib /usr/lib

- I generated a Makefile for the qtruby extension with extconf, and then 
hacked it by hand (see attached)

- QtRuby on Mac should build as a bundle 'qtruby.bundle', and that should be 
installed, along with the Qt.rb and Qt/qtruby.rb ruby sources.

- Copied /sw/bin/ruby to /sw/bin/rubyw, and then ran this command:
$ /Developer/Tools/Rez -t APPL Carbon.r -o rubyw

You can then ruby QtRuby apps from the command line:
$ rubyw t1.rb

..and the menus with work ok, but if you just use 'ruby t1.rb', they won't.

I still haven't managed to create a double clickable app that can be started 
from the Finder though.
