I'm having trouble trying to set the font property on a CATextLayer using the latest version of macruby.

I've noticed that there is already a ticket for an issue when trying to set the font using a NSFont instance (http://www.macruby.org/trac/ticket/1114).

I tried using CGFontCreateWithFontName('Georgia') to create the font reference, with similar results (expected instance of Pointer, got `#<__NSCFType:).  CTFontCreateWithName didn't work either.

Does anyone here have an ideas/suggestions for workarounds?  The rest of the CATextLayer properties seem to work fine, it's just font that causes errors.
