Because the JVM does not pass TTY along to child processes, pagers as used with ```ri``` will not work properly. For JRuby 1.6.x and earlier, we patched ri to always basically do -T, but I'd like to find a better solution.

This is mostly a placeholder while I investigate. If I can't find a good solution that actually makes paging work, then the resolution here will be to not use a pager under JRuby.
