On OS-X to get ruby/python bindings for frameworks, there is a program called 'gen_bridge_metadata' that ships with Leopard. Unfortunately, it is broken. It complains of an undefined local variable or method:

The fix is to edit the document.rb, located at /System/Library/Frameworks/Ruby.framework/Versions/1.8/usr/lib/ruby/1.8/rexml/document.rb, directly. Here's a patch that should should be applicable for anyone that comes across it.
