hi i also had issues with ruby/mysql, if ruby and mysql are working 
independantly but don't talk to each other, you might want to check this 
out:http://www.ruby-forum.com/topic/8061#3353

check this out to read article i started when i was having my mysql 
problems:
http://www.ruby-forum.com/topic/61253#63952

i personally never installed any C code modules and i never ran 
extconf.rb - this may be what you are looking for, however i'm still 
hoping to find out why this solved my problems(if there are any people 
out there who might know'maybe it's cos i never ran etconf.rb, i'm not 
willing  to find out though')

 good luck
