I don't know the reason, but it looks they were added to support
multiple versions of ruby?

http://cvsweb.netbsd.org/bsdweb.cgi/pkgsrc/devel/ruby-gnome2-glib/Makefile#rev1.4
This added
> + CONFLICTS+=		ruby-gnome2-glib-[0-9]*
and log says "Cancel to support ruby-1.6.x and GTK+-2.4 or earlier."

http://cvsweb.netbsd.org/bsdweb.cgi/pkgsrc/devel/ruby-gnome2-glib/Makefile#rev1.10
This added
> + CONFLICTS+=		ruby[0-9][0-9]-gnome2-glib-[0-9]*
and log says "Support String encoding in Ruby 1.9"
