For example, here is how I now must check for version 1.0.0RC3 or later:
if (defined?JRUBY_VERSION) &&
((JRUBY_VERSION =~ /^(\d+\.\d+\.\d+)([-\.A-Z0-9]*)/ &&
(($1 == '1.0.0' && ($2.empty? || $2 >= 'RC3')) || $1 > '1.0.0')) ||
(JRUBY_VERSION =~ /^(\d+\.\d+)([-\.A-Z0-9]*)/ && $1 >= '1.1'))
Maybe I'll just replace this with an array of known versions, and publish a
new gem for each new JRuby version...

Is it intended that JRuby depart from RationalVersioningPolicy ("three
non-negative integers, separated by periods (e.g. 3.1.4)")? It wasn't

What should an application look for to determine/compare versions?
