Cannot load VirtualBox.version in JRuby (1.6.3) #73

While working on a vagrant plugin for Jenkins, I've hit the stumbling block that I can't bring up VirtualBox under JRuby.

Relevant irb session:

jruby-1.6.3 :002 > require 'rubygems'
 => true 
jruby-1.6.3 :003 > require 'virtualbox'
 => true 
jruby-1.6.3 :004 > VirtualBox.version
 => nil 
jruby-1.6.3 :005 >

Hi, I had the same problem, that is why I found this reported issue.

I had only jRuby 1.6.4 in my path and uses gem, irb

Tried once more using jgem and jirb and it worked.
