Thanks for the patch. I've built a test release of subversion
against ruby 1.9. All the ruby tests pass except for one, but
there's a FIXME comment in the test so I think that's okay. I don't
use the Ruby bindings myself so that's about as much as I can do.

I'm not sure if an official RFU is appropriate (since the test Ruby
release was never announced), but here are the files in case
someone's interested:
