redis gem test passes in 1.8, fails in Maglev.

Not sure what's up, any help much appreciated! Pretty good chance I broke everything.

I've been digging into this a little bit more.

The problem seems to be in redis-3.0.3/lib/redis/connection.ruby.rb, where #initialize of Redis::Connection::SocketMixin (line 12) isn't being called for the Redis::Connection::TCPSocket (line 113).

I'm not sure where the problem #initialize is that isn't calling super, but the class hierarchy is:

    Redis::Connection::TCPSocket

    Redis::Connection::SocketMixin

    Socket

    Socket::Constants

    BasicSocket

    IO

    Enumerable

    File::Constants

    Object

    Kernel

On a probably unrelated note, I tried working around the lack of #initialize by modifying Redis::Connection::SocketMixin#gets to run @buffer ||= "" at the beginning, but that led me to another error where IO#read_nonblock from ruby core apparently doesn't exist in Maglev.
