I justed looked a bit at GnuStep yesterday. Apparently there is an Linux
from Scratch inspired operating system named SimplyGnuStep that is entirely
based around GnuStep for userinterface already from bootstrapping:

GnuStep is based around Objective C and is apparently compatible with Cocoa.

It might be worthwhile looking into this with a Ruby centric approach.
SimplyGnuStep isn't particularly mature at this point.
