option 1: start your session with

  irb -Iib-ruby/trunk

option 2: put the $:.unshift 'ib-ruby/trunk' into a file called boot.rb, 
then you just do require 'boot' before require 'ib'

option 3: install the ib gem (and then require 'rubygems'; require 'ib')

option 4: put the session setup into ~/.irbrc [not recommended, you 
don't want all your sessions to have this]

option 5: copy all the ib code into the current directory [messy]

If you are building an application, I would be inclined to make a 
vendor/ subdirectory and install ib under that, and have a boot.rb which 
adds it to $:. Your app just needs require 'boot' at the top.
