In case anyone is curious - I got this to work by putting the Microsoft.Maps.MapControl.dll and Microsoft.Maps.MapControl.Common.dll assemblies directly into the DLR.xap file.
This doesn't seem ideal - the slvx approach ensures that silverlight applications can avoid downloading command dependencies such as IronRuby, IronPython etc. once for every application. It's functional enough to show how easily silverlight applications can be created without needing an ide or a compiler. Mark.
