[…] does TextMate require a specific Ruby version?
TextMate commands are only guaranteed to work with 1.8.7 (or whatever ships with OS X).
But commands use the ruby from your PATH where TM_RUBY is for user scripts, script validation and such.
So it should be safe to set TM_RUBY to a different ruby.
I don’t see any use of TM_RUBY in the GetBundles (which you mention had issues) found here: http://svn.textmate.org/trunk/Review/Bundles/GetBundles.tmbundle/ — I believe an older version may have wrongly used TM_RUBY.
When using RVM to switch Rubies, does that require a TextMate relaunch?
Relaunching TextMate doesn’t change the command environment, so wouldn’t think so, but I don’t know what “using RVM to switch Rubies” conveys.
