Description

Currently, if you try to pass a Ruby Fixnum to a Java method whose argument type is Serializable, it fails with a message that it can't coerce a Fixnum to Serializable. Well, I'm not going to accept such a defeatist attitude!!! Yes, we can coerce a Fixnum to Serializable, and this patch proves it.

This still needs to be fixed and is part of the "new JI" we discussed a bit on the mailing list. We have a solution and a path forward, but not for 1.4.

Charlie, can you confirm that this is fixed now? JavaUtil.java looks quite different from what the patch suggests.
