Thanks for the idea. I had already updated everything. The problem turned out to be that for some reason, my installation of ruby was still at 1.8.6 instead of 1.8.7 that is supposed to be installed with snow leopard. in my case it wasn't, not sure why, but the passenger install script only requires the fastthread library in ruby versions lower than 1.8.7. So I installed ruby 1.8.7 from source, and now everything seems to be working.
