Is there anything I can do upstream to help with this?
I'll post the patches for discussion; see for yourself.

Indeed, it's 1.9.3:
ruby-1.9.3.392-29.fc18.x86_64
Debian is on 1.9.1 IIRC?
Uh, that's interesting. Actually, it's 1.9.3. The package name is
ruby1.9.1; the package's version number is 1.9.3.194-8.
In any case, the piece of code that causes the compiler error should
only be compiled if HAVE_RB_HASH_LOOKUP is not defined. The comment
directly above tells me that this is "[f]or RHEL 5 (Ruby 1.8.5)".
