Apparently someone mentioned a similar project on ruby-talk last year, but I don't think the code ever got released: http://blade.nagaokaut.ac.jp/cgi-bin/scat.rb/ruby/ruby-talk/172820 Later in the thread, someone chimed in with http://rubyforge.org/projects/reliable-msg/, which is why it never got implemented.
Not sure why my search didn't reveal these... I just sent these guys an email. Can't find any trace of the first one (Ruby Message Service). The second one seems to exist, but not much in the form of documentation.
On the roll-your-own front, several people (including in that thread) talk about the simplicity of building an MQ on top of a Linda-style tuplespace (ie, rinda). I don't really understand that very deeply, but I've heard similar discussions when talking about distributed job systems, which are essentially MQs with processing.
Yes, I was thinking along the lines of Rinda as well, though I don't have a good enough understanding of the requirements yet to be able to actually roll-my-own.
