I'm sorry, I forgot about the ticket after nobody volunteered to patch
     #!/usr/bin/env ruby
which would pick the wrong ruby and thus the build would fail.

Probably not. Ideally it would check if the os already provides 1.9
and use that one if it does, else depend on whatever ruby is already
installed by MP.

But then again, the problem is that the ruby files shipped with
mkvtoolnix need to be changed in some way.

A workaround for the buildbot (if files aren't changed yet) could be
to add path to rubyXY's bin to PATH.

Apart from that ... mkvtoolnix from MacPorts never worked for me. It
crashes because of dependencies being compiled with a different
compiler.
