Hey,

As discussed on the IRC channel, I currently have a problem compiling Ruby files in Java when the body of the Ruby files exceeds the 65536 bytes limit in Java since the body is stored in a variable in the Java class. I'm no expert but having a way to either skip the comments in the original Ruby file may be useful to skip some lines or better yet would be to read the body and not store it in the Java class (might not work).

This bug is reproducible in 9k and 1.7 since they both load the entire body of the original Ruby file in the class.

Please let me know, if you want me to run tests since I have a couple of apps where I encounter this problem.
