http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/JRUBY-884
This bug describes a need for adding pre-JVM-startup command-line switches to JRuby. Unfortunately, I haven't the skill with sh and cmd to make this work right. We need help here.
Basically, we need to go through all the arguments passed to the jruby sh or cmd script and pull out those we want to pass to the VM, leaving everything else intact exactly the same. I had an early version that allowed a -J flag for passing an option to the underlying JVM (-J-server for example) but it broke other arguments on the command line.
If someone can get the -J thing working, that would really solve 90% of this bug. The remainder is deciding which options should have their own command-line switches and making sure they're all per-runtime rather than global (as in system properties). We can handle that side.
