What's the status of this? Did we get these tests into MRI? If not, that's the right path...I can commit them if they're ready, and JRuby master is now running off trunk stdlib/tests so it will pick them up.

These were jruby only tests. I don't know if they've made it upstream yet. I also don't know why I didn't remove jruby's copy of the same tests with this commit. Mostly PR'd as a reference.

Ruby issue discussing the behavior and tests: https://bugs.ruby-lang.org/issues/10248

Clarification from Matz occurred on https://bugs.ruby-lang.org/issues/9112

seems that this has been stale on MRI's end (for 2+ years): https://bugs.ruby-lang.org/issues/10248
this also now has merge conflicts. if MRI accepts these the tests will eventually reach JRuby as well ...
so I guess its safe to close (the bug can still link to the change-set since its refering to the fork-ed repo).

I'll create a new one to put them in the jruby specific tests for now then.

@tduehr sounds very good esp. if they already pass, thanks.
