Yes it does. But it is broken in Tiger and basically needs to be
recompiled and reinstalled to be usable. It is only version 1.6 in the
previous version of MacOS X. The library that you used may not be
installed. Etc.

In short, you might be better off bundling everything, including ruby,
in a click-able application for better result.
