I'm not sure what is causing this. Is the classname "QBitArray&" with the '&'? 
That is certainly wrong, but I would think that QtRuby is just reading that 
name from the array in the smoke library. So it could mean the smoke lib has 
been generated wrongly for some reason.

The class loads fine in my version of QtRuby:

$ irb -rQt4
irb(main):001:0> p Qt::BitArray
Qt::BitArray
=> nil
