Comment(by martinlagardette@…):

 I'd say the portability is kind of unlikely.

 `RCLASS` is a cast to `struct RClass`, which does not exist in MacRuby. We
 tend to think it is '''not''' a good idea to give access to the internal
 structures, especially since it's implementation dependent. Unfortunately,
 a lot of extension developers abuse this availability, most often
 unjustified though.

 What might be possible it to talk with the `narray` developer and try to
 see if there is another way to do whatever (s)he does with the class
 struct.
