Hi, I just had the same thing this morning. I reinstalled sup from aur
(there's been a new package version, upgraded me from 0.11-1 to 0.11-2)
and just in case backed ruby (upgraded recently to 1.9.2) to 1.9.1. I'm
not sure the latter was necessary but I'm up and running again. I'm
using this at work too so I have no time to experiment with upgrading
ruby, but I'll try when I get a chance (especially if somebody here can
confirm sup works with ruby 1.9.2 on their box). 

The new package release -2 depends on ruby-ncursesw instead of
ruby-ncurses the -1 depended on - this might have something to do with
the whole error (but it's just a guess). 

Try respawning sup from aur and if this doesn't help, downgrade ruby to
1.9.1. 

Good luck!
Piotr
