The problem is that when you recompile Ruby with --with-openssl-dir,
this won't get passed through to the step when the actual OpenSSL
extension will be built. You could upgrade your OpenSSL on the OS
level, but you probably don't want to if it's not in the package system
yet. Then things would work automagically, but you can still get
1.0.1 support with a custom OpenSSL installation:

Ruby OpenSSL is a C extension that has its own build process
using an extconf.rb file. So what you can do is go to your Ruby
source directory, and there to ext/openssl.
Run
  ruby extconf.rb --with-openssl-dir=/path/to/openssl1.0.1
then
  make
This will produce openssl.so. Take that file and go to the directory
where your Ruby installation lives, there you go to
   lib/ruby/1.9.<x>/i686 (32bit)
or
  lib/ruby/1.9.x/x86_64... (64 bit, depends on your OS, you'll only find
native libraries in it)

and replace the file openssl.so (or .dynlib or .dll) with the one you just
compiled.

Now `ruby -ropenssl -e 'puts OpenSSL::OPENSSL_VERSION` should
print the desired 1.0.1.
