OK, so it sounds like this might work (be aware that only 2.0 will 
expand $HOME and $PATH in your variable settings):

    TM_RUBY = "$HOME/.rbenv/shims/ruby"
    TM_RI   = "$HOME/.rbenv/shims/ri"
    PATH    = "$PATH:$HOME/.rbenv/bin"

I don’t know if the last line is required (for the shims to function), 
but by appending to PATH we don’t eclipse any of the standard tools, 
so it does no harm for TextMate.

As mentioned in my previous reply, we’ll (hopefully soon) start to 
hardcode the /path/to/ruby to make it robust against user alterations.
