As long as you are on Windows only, take a look at rubyscript2exe:

http://www.erikveen.dds.nl/rubyscript2exe/index.html

I use it precisely for this kind of packaging my app into a single 
executable. Works like a charm. It even has a "hack on location" feature
which is extremely useful if you have installations on machines which
do not have ruby.

HTH,
