Sorry for not replying to the thread but I'm not getting any mail from  
rspec-users right now for whatever reason.

It looks like it is an issue specific to jruby.

With rspec-1.1.11 and jruby-1.4

#linenumber_spec.rb
describe "line number" do
    it "should be example one" do
       true.should be_true
    end
    it "should be another example" do
       true.should be_true
    end
end

 > jruby-1.1.4/bin/jruby $GEM_HOME/bin/spec -l 2 $HOME/tmp/ 
linenumber_spec.rb
