slightly outdated:

http://codeforpeople.com/lib/ruby/rb-gsl-win/


but you may be able to download and simply run

  ruby install.rb

it ships with narray to btw.

basically you need to do this
  1) install msys
  2) compile ruby under msys
  3) compile narray using ruby under msys
  4) compile gsql using msys
  5) compile rb-gsl using ruby under msys

  6) manually copy required files into c:\ruby\bin OR check out my  
installer which uses the one-click to figure out where things should  
go.  (the installer would normally go into msys space)

one last note: it was a pain in the butt and required more that a few  
tiny c code and makefile/bash hacks.

good luck!
