Only noticed this now, sorry. My only request is to provide a somewhat more meaningful commit message, "fixes so far" doesn't indicate anything about what is actually being fixed. Other than that this PR looks good to me.

@yorickpeterse kind of got it, but that pesky https://github.com/CpuID/rubinius/commit/9dd3f47c6f540ce41053da5478abbfcedd87a5aa is still laying around in the branch... :(

@CpuID A rebase should do it, alternatively I can rebase it prior to merging if that's easier.

yes please, if you can that would be awesome :)

Rebased into 2920c9e, thanks!

@CpuID thanks to you and everyone who worked on this. I just built 3.95 on Alpine 3.7 Docker image:

Chicken-scratch notes that need to be turned into a build script https://gist.github.com/brixen/ef849d23078ee3fc617c7f40ad3630bf

@CpuID thanks to you and everyone who worked on this.
