Could not create Makefile due to some reason, probably lack of
necessary libraries and/or headers.  Check the mkmf.log file for more
details.  You may need configuration options.
Provided configuration options:
    --with-opt-dir
    --without-opt-dir
    --with-opt-include
    --without-opt-include=${opt-dir}/include
    --with-opt-lib
    --without-opt-lib=${opt-dir}/lib
    --with-make-prog
    --without-make-prog
    --srcdir=/tmp/yaourt-tmp-root/aur-ruby-rmagick/ruby-rmagick/src/RMagick-2.9.1/ext/RMagick
    --curdir

anyone know what package this is referring to?
You need base-devel.  pacman -S base-devel.
Alternatively you can install RMagick as a gem.  I just did so a couple of minutes ago on my arch box.
