This may become obsolete soon, since graphics/gdal is going to be
updated, but with my current (slightly outdated) ports tree it fails
with not being able to find:
a) the ruby binary since there is no /usr/local/bin/ruby
b) as a side-effect ruby.h, but also because swig is using a deprecated
Config interface that apparently is unable to set the include path
correctly.

swig-1.3.40
RUBY_VER=1.9 in /etc/make.conf
RUBY config option set in graphics/gdal

Given issues described with swig 1.x earlier on this list, you may want
to investigate if swig 1.x should be removed/patched/whatever before
this sweep.
