Presumably, the "current" list is some subset of the list found on the RAA:

http://raa.ruby-lang.org/cat.rhtml?category_major=Library;category_minor=GUI

If by "current", you mean actively developed and discussed, the ones 
that seem to come up most often are Ruby/Tk (built-in to Ruby), Ruby/GTK 
and FXRuby. There is also the still-fairly-new wxRuby, which for some 
reason isn't yet listed in the RAA.

They are all cross-platform and, AFAIK, thread-friendly. Ruby/Tk and 
wxRuby would have native look-and-feel (right?) while Ruby/GTK and 
FXRuby do not.

Hope this helps,

Lyle
