That's about as far as I can go without having it set up on my 
machine. The procedure should be the same as I spelled out 
though. You need to create an extern(C) function that calls 
Runtime.initialize(). Then you call that function from Ruby the 
same as any other function you call with FFI. I'm familiar with 
the R FFI and the only difference is that some parts of that are 
automated.
