Clay,
        Have you tried running ant and using out the resulting jruby.jar
under /lib? That worked for me.

Subject: [jruby-dev] building and running jruby source

Basically I want to test out the changes I made, but can't run JRuby from
source.

I get excited about jruby, download the newest thing I can find (rc1),
compile it in eclipse, jar it up, drop it in the ruby version of netbeans,
and it partially works.  But it does this when you require java: 
Resource not found: /builtin/javasupport.rb.ast.ser

After some research about the added ".ast.ser" I guess that I need to
compile the .rb file.  Does this mean that I can't run from source?  I try
to use jrubyc on it, even though the documentation tells me that it will
produce a .class rather than the .rb.ast.ser that I need.  Making it work on
one file that has lots of dependencies is going to take more investment in
my configuration though. 

So I figure that there has to be an easy way that everyone is building jruby
or running the source.  I just can't find any reference to it.  This is
quite a barrier for contributing.  What am I missing?

Thanks,
Clay
