Thanks everybody for all the great replies.  Very helpful!

Nathan,
Thanks for the detailed responses.  To answer your one question, Ruby
does indeed have an adjacency operator.  For example:
irb(main):001:0> "foo" "bar"
=> "foobar"
irb(main):002:0> "baaz""quux"
=> "baazquux"
The version of Sass I'm using supports a similar mechanism (and it's
mentioned in the docs on Hampton's web site).

Chris,
Yep, I'm doing this mostly for my own education (learning ANTLR).

Rhett,
I actually wrote something very similar to what you linked at my job
(JRuby + Haml/Sass gem + J2EE filters and servlets).  It's working ok,
but takes about 5 to 10 seconds to compile some of our large Sass code
bases to CSS, which can be annoying for development (it caches the
output, so it's not a concern for production).  Have you had similar
performance issues?  I think the source of the slow down in my case
was JRuby + JVM 1.4.  Performance is quite a bit better on JVM 1.6,
but a lot of our products are still running 1.4.  I've been using
CRuby privately to speed things up at development time for myself, but
would like to keep everything in the Java stack if possible, hence my
project...
