Does MacRuby support static compilation?

Question

Does the latest version of MacRuby support static compilation?

Here's some terminal output from an attempt to use it... It shows up in the options for the macrubyc command.

Desktop > macrubyc play_all_podcasts.rb --static -o play_all_podcasts

From what I've gathered, static compilation is still a work and progress and most likely won't even be included in the 1.0 release.
