Description
About 1.5 years ago or more we updated JRuby to Ruby 1.8.6 stdlib. Since then we have not done a bulk update of those libraries, even though there have been bug fixes and improvements throughout. We need to get stdlib updated to reasonably current patchlevels.
A few notes:
- This was discovered fixing
JRUBY-3108 - We must make sure to update without removing any security patches we've applied during the intervening years
- It might be useful to make a play for the build itself to pull stdlib from MRI, so we can always be assured we're getting an appropriate version and only have to maintain a patch set
There also could have been performance improvements like cgi.rb which would affect rails performance.
