Our understanding is that 1.8.6 was largely a bug-fix release, and since
at least half of JRuby is not implemented with the same code as C Ruby
(our Java code versus C Ruby's C code) we opted not to update the
remainder (stdlib) until after 1.0. I'd be surprised if the difference
between 1.8.5 and 1.8.6 was noticed by anyone using JRuby.
As far as 1.9 goes, we're planning to start implementing select 1.9
features now that JRuby 1.0 is out, to allow early adopters to start
using those features with JRuby.
