Update: it seems that the problem is already taken care of; ruby.h in
version 1.8 contains

#define RARRAY_PTR(s) (RARRAY(s)->ptr)
#define RARRAY_LEN(s) (RARRAY(s)->len)

and RbConfig and FileUtils already exist in the 1.8 library, so the
changes for 1.9 are backward compatible.

I guess now I'll try and check if the thing dumps in 1.8 too...
