John Siracusa's Mac OS X 10.7 Lion Review
Anyone know why Apple didn't update Ruby to 1.9.2 in Lion?

Most likely they were worried about breaking existing scripts since 1.8 has been the official Ruby of Mac OS X for pretty much its entire lifetime. Ruby 1.9 is better, but it did manage to break a decent number of programs.

If you need 1.9.2, the cleanest way to currently get it is via RVM.
Install RVM, then:
rvm install 1.9.2 rvm --default use 1.9.2
