Took a look at what was breaking ripple and it is a little more involved
then I was hoping:

- Android crashing the browser is caused by changes to how android sets up
it's polling and how the modules all work together in the exec module.  We
used to have everything regarding polling rolled into the
'cordova/plugin/android/polling' module in which ripple would just override
[1] to do nothing since ripple handled everything by replacing the entire
exec function.  I think this module was removed / moved to another place in
3.0 but there is much more thought to be done to get this working better.

Switched over to using the cordova.ios.js file since it doesn't have this
problem and ripple was able to boot and emulate geolocation fine.  The
plugins were not loading from cordova serve ios though (couldn't load
cordova_plugins.js).

I think with some tweaks we could have ripple working on all platform
cordova.js files again.  I am going to need to version out a new platform
for cordova to handle the updated hacks and overrides to boot each platform
cleanly but doesn't seem like an impossible task.
