JRuby works without any problem (at least with XP) since is using the Jdbc adapter, but probably you want to use C Ruby. The problem is usually the dll and you could try this dll from instantrails: http://instantrails.rubyforge.org/svn/trunk/InstantRails-win/InstantRails/mysql/bin/ As you know Ruby works better on Unix (Matz words) so if you can use Ubuntu or a Mac. After many complaints, at work, I managed to get a Mac and now I am really happy about my dev environment. If I where still in Windows, probably now I would be using JRuby for sure.
