Clearing the load path could complicate it. The main breaking change
is that Ruby stdlib would not be accessible at the root of class
loader resources...but would now be available as the resources under
"/META-INF/jruby.home/lib/ruby/1.8". It could potentially break any
environments where load path was not being used, but class path /
classloader resources were used to load stdlib from the root of
classloader resources.
Let me know what your test results are.
