I'm pretty sure there's a bug in current rubyscript2exe which makes it 
include the wxruby .so library file twice in the .exe bundle that's 
created. Unpacking and fixing this bug so the lib is only included once 
gives a working executable file of 3-5MB for a "hello world" app.

I'm following this up with the rubyscript2exe author - in the meantime, 
get in touch on the wxruby-users list for more info.
