Array#pack with "U" pattern is broken with values bigger than 65536
-------------------------------------------------------------------

                 Key: JRUBY-1789
                 URL: http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/JRUBY-1789
             Project: JRuby
          Issue Type: Bug
         Environment: Latest JRuby 1.1b1
            Reporter: Vladimir Sizikov
            Assignee: Thomas E Enebo
         Attachments: array_pack_with_U.patch

Consider the following example:

{noformat}
[2**16].pack("U")
{noformat}

MRI prints:
"\360\220\200\200"

JRuby prints:
"\000"

Basically, all results for values bigger than 2**16 are incorrect.

The proposed patch (with regression tests) fixes the problem.
New join stuff was used for conversion, thanks to Marcin for discussion. :)
