Quick +1 to vote this patch up. I've been working on the JRuby support for the DataMapper ORM and DataObjects(.rb) database connectivity layer. These projects rely in turn on another project called Extlib, which provides a bunch of useful extensions (lazy arrays, thread pools, string extensions) for the other two projects.
I pulled down and built the latest IronRuby and running Extlib's specs, the lack of Thread#priority appears to be the first blocker in our support for IR.
