To be honest, I use System Ruby + Bundler. Thanks to BrightBox PPA! This forces me to ensure that all my Ruby projects are using the latest (well, I say latest but still using 2.1.5 for everything), and is the easiest. I think it also makes debugging easier as it eliminates a certain class of problems.
Server infrastructure is managed via Puppet, so it's just a tweak to a manifest and off we go. I do recognise that this is probably unsuitable for consultants or people managing a large number of projects that must use older versions. But I've found 2.1 to be more or less a drop-in replacement for 1.9.3. YMMV.
