In general we highly discourage people using ruby 1.9 with TextMate bundles.

That said, the particular to_plist issue is more related to certain builds of ruby: We include a C extension for ruby that can read/write Apple’s property lists. This C extension is built with the ruby 1.8 headers and rely on the magic numbers for the various ruby types. For reasons unknown to me, it seems certain builds of ruby has shifted these magic numbers making those builds binary incompatible with existing C extensions.
