Ok, I'll do that for now. I assume Linkage is still in the mock?

Ok. If there's anything I can do (e.g. testing it out on JRuby) let me
know. I won't be able to move to the proper bootstrapping logic until
there's a release ASM (or at least, I won't merge such a change to
master until it can be released with JRuby).

As soon as this is all cleaned up, we'll have a JRuby release
(probably 1.6.2) with full transition to java.lang.invoke.
