Hi Frank,

No, it's not that easy... ;-)
As I said, I've no experience with Macs, but you should be able to 
compile Ruby yourself in any case. Download the recent version from 
http://www.ruby-lang.org/en/downloads/ (that should be 1.9.1-p243), 
unpackage the tarball and run this commands in it:
  $ ./configure
  $ make
  # make install

You may should think about passing some options to the configure step, 
especially --prefix and --program_suffix (type ./configure --help for 
help on those). That would allow you to have two Rubies installed at the 
same time.

Maybe someone with Mac experience can suggest another way?

Marvin
