You can program the Gumstix in C, Perl, Java... any language that it can run. You just have to be capable of working in a Linux environment as that is what the Gumstix uses as its OS.
I would say, before you invest in a Gumstix, find an old PC you can put Linux on and become familiar with basic usage of the command line (not GUI environment).

Me: "We'll find out, won't we."
Both: *maniacal laughter*

Me: "Well, the basic control system still responds. That's always good."
Both: *further laughter*
