file-tail tests are a gross brutalization of threads and timeout.rb...make them 
pass!

                 URL: http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/JRUBY-1886
             Project: JRuby
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: Core Classes/Modules
            Reporter: Charles Oliver Nutter
             Fix For: JRuby 1.1


Hey, you want a fun threading challenge? Make the tests in the file-tail gem 
pass! In addition to some probably IO issues (which won't be nearly as 
difficult) there's a heavy brutalization of threading and the timeout.rb 
library. So making these tests pass would go a long way toward improving 
threading robustness.

Of course, it's also somewhat likely the tests are not safe or correct on a 
true native/concurrent threaded impl, but they should at least not blow up in 
nasty, nasty ways.
