At the moment, ruby-mode.el uses font-lock-keywords as opposed to
font-lock-syntactic-keywords to highlight here-doc strings. This means
that Emacs doesn't actually recognize them as strings, so unbalanced
quotes paint the whole buffer in font-lock-string-face. In addition, it
improperly highlights strings that look like nested heredocs, like the
following:

<<FOO
<<BAR
BAR
FOO

The attached patch uses font-lock-syntactic-keywords instead, so that
heredocs actually register as strings, so stray quotation marks don't
wreak havoc.
