I tried to install RedCloth-3.274 in jruby (trunk) but the install failed when RedCloth tried to build the C code using mkmf: I forget whether SuperRedcloth ever did build in JRuby?? I know Hpricot (which also uses ragel which can compile to Java code) works in JRuby -- with the patch here: https://code.whytheluckystiff.net/hpricot/ticket/131) I might be confusing the two ...

Stephen: I'm guessing you figured out that Hpricot has JRuby source and not RedCloth. You're welcome to code it, though! Good work on benchmarking the code generation styles. I'm eager to see the results! Jason
