My understaning of GPL says that GPL code can be freely used anywhere as
long as there is not source level linkage - if you have only some binary
interaction with GPLed code, then the licencsing of the GPL code cannot
affect the rest of you source code. So if it is a DLL, then I think it
should be fine.=20

The only thing that can then get in your way is the actual licensing of
binaries in the ruby dist. I belive the ruby license itself is more
liberal that the GPL, so you are free to do as you please.=20

Everything above maybe wrong, please read through the license docs
yourself, every license that is valid in this context has to be avilable
in the ruby distribution itself, so you wont have to look very far.
