I'm pretty sure that 1.4.7 doesn't find frameworks.  I think to use it you'll have
to install Qt from source, and build it with -no-frameworks (or whatever the
configure switch is called).

It's definitely fixed in subversion, as I've built qtruby on OSX last week using the
downloaded Qt 4.2.3 .dmg.  However, this verison of QtRuby hasn't been released yet
as a package.  I'm not sure what the release timeframe is (soon I hope!).  If you
want to check out the subversion sources and build qtruby all you need it subversion
and cmake and a little persistence. :)
