jruby-debug would be good - BTW: yesterday I found out about a problem
in JRuby and  set_trace_func
based debugging: if JRuby's JIT is turned on, this won't work, because
the code that the JIT emits doesn't call the trace function.
I guess, there's not much to do about this before 1.0, but I guess
filing this as a bug would is necessary for post-1.0.

Have they committed to sharing their DBGp implementation?
They have a Ruby version in their CVS but it's not based on the
RDT/eclipse-debug code.

If there's an interest: I've been working on my own Ruby DBGp
implementation (with the RDT code as backend) - it's not complete, and
I'm still trying to get it to connect with DLTK, but it's coming along.
