I'm very sorry. You was not missing anything, but I had jumped to
a misleading conclusion about your message. Now, I have understood
your question, maybe.

I guess that the following show an answer of your question:

/* cc -I/usr/lib/ruby/1.6/powerpc-darwin6.0 -framework Cocoa -framework RubyCocoa test.m */
#import <Cocoa/Cocoa.h>
#import <RubyCocoa/RubyCocoa.h>

int main()
{
  id pool;
  id obj;

  RBRubyCocoaInit();  /* initialize Ruby and RubyCocoa */
  pool = [[NSAutoreleasePool alloc] init];
  obj = [RBObject RBObjectWithRubyScriptCString: "'hello world'" ]; /* eval string */
  NSLog(@"%@", obj);
  obj = [[RBObject alloc] initWithRubyObject: rb_cTime];
  NSLog(@"%@", obj);
  obj = [obj now];   /* obj is a RBObject with wrapping a result of obj.now */
  NSLog(@"%@", obj);
  [pool release];
  return 0;
}
