When MacRuby's FFI support is more mature, declaring an FFI::Struct subclass
like this will be another option.
class MapPoint < FFI::Struct
layout :row, :int, :col, :Int
end
You instantiate an FFI::Struct with a pointer. I'm hacking away on a Ruby
interface to a C library, and I'm slinging around pointers, structs and
unions with ease on MRI 1.8.6, 1.9.1 and JRuby.
