I am using 1.8.24 of gems and 1.9 of rubymotion on Snow Leopard and trying to compile the SparrowInMotion sample project.
I added require 'rubygems' to the Rakefile but it is still crashing on the "invalid option: --no-64-bit" of gen_bridge_data. I thought this bug was fixed ?
invalid option: --no-64-bit Usage: gen_bridge_metadata [options] Use the `-h' flag or consult gen_bridge_metadata(1) for help. ERROR!

I had the same issue and it was because I didn't have Bridge Support installed. Hit up the MacRuby files directory, download and install BridgeSupport Preview 3.zip.
I figured that out by following the instructions on Setting up MacRuby for OS X Snow Leopard
