The -0 flag specifies a record separator to use globally. If specified as in test/test_command_line_switches.rb#test_dash_0_splits_records it can interfere with loading either io/console (loaded by RubyGems), FFI, or both.

A warning results because it fails to load properly, and if verbose is specified you get an additional warning:

system ~/projects/jruby $ echo '1,2,3' | jruby -054 -n -e 'puts $_ + " "'
io/console on JRuby shells out to stty for most operations,
system ~/projects/jruby $ echo '1,2,3' | jruby -054 -v -n -e 'puts $_ + " "'

rbx.platform.typedef.__uint8_t',io/console on JRuby shells out to stty for most operations,

Unusually, this does not appear to break on Java 7 or 8, so we may be falling back on some 7/8 logic when FFI fails that does not require shelling out.

I'm fixing the -0 test, but the issue loading RubyGems with -0 remains. May not be a high priority, since I'm not sure many folks use -0.

RubyGems loads io/console, which we implement using FFI. Either
that console impl or FFI itself do not appear to load right.

See #1381

This seems to have been changed and thus fixed. 9k seems to work now.
