I've seen this pop up a few times on IRC. I'll try and take a look at it later 
today. In the meantime, you may want to try ffi-rzmq which is the FFI version 
of the Ruby bindings (disclaimer: I wrote these bindings). The ffi-rzmq gem 
works on MRI, JRuby & Rubinius and is just as fast as the C extension.

I'll post back here if I figure out why the zmq gem is failing to build.
