No idea (I'm no ruby expert).
The last build log is here:
https://buildd.debian.org/status/fetch.php?pkg=ruby2.3&arch=hppa&ver=2.3.1-2&stamp=1464615629

The log looks similar to x86_64, but I'm not sure if the test suite is run then.

I think most ruby packages build sucessfully.
In the package overview I find only 9 ruby packages which don't build:
