OpenJDK 64-Bit Server VM warning: You have loaded library /home/ralphbel/jruby/jruby-1.7.20-SNAPSHOT/lib/jni/ppc64-Linux/libjffi-1.2.so which might have disabled stack guard. The VM will try to fix the stack guard now.
It's highly recommended that you fix the library with 'execstack -c <libfile>', or link it with '-z noexecstack'.
