There is a project which could make use of Tk with ruby much easier :
    http://github.com/manveru/ffi-tk
It use ffi, so there is no specific binding to compile. You just need
to have the tcl/tk lib available.

  gem install ffi-tk

I'm not sure if this project is already usable, but it could be
**the**
solution for using Tk with Ruby?
It would be great if ffi-tk was afficialy supported by the ruby core.
