dev/null file handled incorrectly in many cases
-----------------------------------------------
Key: JRUBY-2159
URL: http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/JRUBY-2159
Project: JRuby
Issue Type: Bug
Components: Core Classes/Modules
Affects Versions: JRuby 1.1RC2
Environment: Latest JRuby 1.1RC2
Reporter: Vladimir Sizikov
Assignee: Vladimir Sizikov
Fix For: JRuby 1.1
'dev/null' is a special file, and should be handled specially.
Here's a preliminary list of places in JRuby that handle it incorrectly:
1. f = File.open('/dev/null', 'a+') # opening with a+ => exception
2. f.seek(10) => exception
3. f.puts and then f.gets => exception
4. f.flock(File::LOCK_EX) => Jruby breakage
