Additionally to what Brian recommended: did you check whether there is
another option?  Maybe there is a Ruby implementation of the Perl code
you need.  IMHO generally the benefits of embedding one scripting
language in another are pretty low so I'd rather either use a Ruby
implementation of the code you need or do as Brian suggested and keep
the Perl code in a separate process which you then call via fork,
popen or whatever means is appropriate.

Kind regards
