Anyone using rubsyscript2exe on Mac OS X to generate standard Mac application bundles, or at the very least a standalone archive that can be deployed in an application bundle?

Any examples of Ruby-Tk applications that are deployed in this fashion?

Depends what you want to do.
Platypus is for pretty much just skinning a script with a GUI, but RubyCocoa is an actual bridge that allows you to write code that accesses the Cocoa framework directly using Ruby rather than Objective-C.
RubyCocoa will require a lot more knowledge of Cocoa and even Objective-C than would Platypus.

My bad. Platypus looks cool.
