In all honesty, I used the FIT function in gnuplot (without using 
gnuplot for graphics at all) -- it might be easier to strip *its* LMA 
out than GSL.

The learning curve for packaging up a ruby ext is probably no steeper 
than coding up an LMA package, and it's certainly a more useful skill to 
acquire. :)

Thanks for the suggestion.
