Whilst I'm not familiar enough with the structure and many details of Rubygems (as I should be) in order to give you an answer, this re-raises the issue of Software Archeology. My own weak attempt to tackle to this might be of some very limited help in exploring the space. See the code at, and remarks below
http://www.tech.dmu.ac.uk/~hgs/ruby/index.html#rdescriber.rb Among other things, this produces diagrams of which classes create instances of which other classes, using GraphViz. The parser is very, very crude. It should probably be rewritten using some of the excellent work from Rubinius, etc. I've not touched the code in a long time, so it is probably frightful, but if it helps, then that's something at least.
