Check out recent mailing list traffic on this subject. You can checkout
the ncursesw branch and compile a wide-character Ruby ncurses library.
With that, wide characters actually get displayed correctly.
The remaining issue is that there's no way of determining the display
width of wide character, and no way of taking a substring of a
wide-character string based on character display widths. There's a libc
function called wcwidth that I've been playing around with importing via
dlopen, which would be the logical starting point for, but haven't quite
managed to make that work.

I just tried it and it worked. Could it be a transient failure?

Yes, I've asked them to fix this but no response. I am considering
migrating to gitorious or github for this reason.
