I managed to install it through CrossOver Linux, which
is based on wine http://www.codeweavers.com/products/cxoffice/
but only in a in a win2000 "bottle".

It is not really usable, since there is an annoying
problem with buttons and menus only being rendered
when the mouse is over them, but the 3D context and
ruby integration seem to be fine, in fact I managed
to build a simple scene and export it through 
the exporter written by Thomas. 
Perhaps with a bit of effort the Codeweavers guys could
make it work well.
Just to have an idea of the problems:
