I may be a bit of-base, but since I don't know much about the ruby gems, I'm wondering how close of a situation this is with the perl cpan modules? They're integrated to operate using the distribution process of both cpan and portage...
They are similar. There is a project called g-gem [1] that uses the gems.eclass to generate ebuilds.
A few of us had a good talk on Eggs on yesterday on irc and came up with a few proposals. I've setup SVN/Trac[2] so we can get things organized. Theres a very quickly dished-out eggs.eclass and test ebuild on the Trac site.
