Of course, there are no methods for the new features of new Tcl/Tk. But Tk.tk_call() method can call such new features. You can try to use latest Ruby/Tk on your released version of Ruby. Please replace all files under "ext/tk" directory on your Ruby source to the files of the latest version on Ruby's SVN, and compile it. I think it may work with 1.8.6 and later.
