Yes, ruby 1.8 and 1.9 are not binary compatible in general, the binary
gem on rubyforge is intended for use with ruby 1.8. I just uploaded on
rubyforge gem  compiled against 1.9.1
(ruby-opengl-0.60.1-x86-mswin32-ruby19.gem
<http://rubyforge.org/frs/download.php/52648/ruby-opengl-0.60.1-x86-mswin32-ruby19.gem>),
so try that out. It should work with ruby 1.9.1 from ruby-lang.org (or
any other 1.9 version compiled with MSVC6).
