Its been waiting in backports-NEW for over a month now.
I am able to provide the latest security updates via my personal repo at
https://people.debian.org/~praveen/gitlab-11/ (gitlab 11.5.4) but really
like this to be in official stretch-backports repo.
I'm willing to volunteer for backports ftp team.
Note: Backporting ruby 2.5 was not required as gitlab is working fine
with ruby 2.3 (gitlab-qa tests passed and manual testing did not show
any issues).
