I'm more concerned with doing the right thing than the convenient thing ;)

That said...once JRuby's no longer affected (due to my fixes) my heart won't
be in the fight. It's not a severe situation for us, even though it's a
public API; I'll remove varargs, deprecate the varargs version, and others
will have to cope with the javac "fix" on their own I guess...
