That being said, you can't avoid JNI forever. In my humble opinion, a

You may be right...and it would be quite generous of you to jump in and
help out! I'm sure your JNI-based implementation of POSIX functions for
JRuby will be an excellent addition!

I can't give you JNI-based POSIX functions, but I can give you Java-based ones which might be a bit easier to maintain. JNA (http://jna.dev.java.net) might help you get the functionality you need without having to deal with JNI headaches.
Ah-ha...I knew something like this had to exist. It seems like this
could be used to give us access to POSIX functions, as a sort of
"J/Invoke" capability? I can also see another use for this: reusing
Ruby's dll/so-based extensions until ports can be made...
Very interesting...
