Title: Backport of bug fixes from master to jruby-1_6

I was able to cherry-pick the following 35 fixes from master on to jruby-1_6 with no conflicts and with all tests passing for each addition. Proposal for a 1.6.8 release forthcoming. In any case are these all well accepted, conservative fixes?

Note that I simply rejected anything that wasn't labelled a fix or that didn't apply cleanly. There might be some additional fix opportunities that would just require straight forward conflict resolution. Please let me know if you know of any you would like me to try that on and I'll add them here.
