Is it possible to ‘compile’ ruby into a dll?

It seems so: When I look into the bin-directory of my ruby-distribution
for windows I see (among others) the following:
ruby.exe which only has 20kB
and
msvcrt-ruby18.dll which has almost 900kB
So I guess that msvcrt-ruby18.dll is ruby in a dll while ruby.exe is
just
the command-line-interface to thiss dll.

I thought the above were written in C.

Ruby 2.0 could be out by New Years at the soonest (probably will be out

understand it will still need an interpreter. I have heard speculation
of the ability to do stand alone compilation, but not from anybody who
might actually write the code to make that happen so I would not hold
your breath. For the foreseeable future the answer is no.
I was thinking I might be able to use IronRuby and create a .net dll?

The Ruby interpreter: Yes
Ruby Code: Not yet
