Hi nobu, thank you very much for getting back to this.

I tried out your revised PR patch and can confirm that this resolves the issue. I ran `make test-all` to make sure things are fine and it looks good.

Bug #20452: Ruby 3.3 on Alpine Linux results in a relatively shallow SystemStackError exception
https://bugs.ruby-lang.org/issues/20452#change-109884

* Author: Earlopain (A S)
* Status: Feedback
* ruby -v: 3.3.1
* Backport: 3.0: UNKNOWN, 3.1: UNKNOWN, 3.2: UNKNOWN, 3.3: UNKNOWN
----------------------------------------
This is a redo of https://bugs.ruby-lang.org/issues/14387, reported against a non-eol version. The same issue still applies on recent rubies, though I personally only have tested 3.3 and 3.2:

```rb
n = 100000
res = {}
1.upto(n).to_a.inject(res) do |r, i|
  r[i] = {}
end

def f(x)
  x.each_value { |v| f(v) }
end

f(res)
```

The patch from https://bugs.ruby-lang.org/issues/14387#note-13 still works, though as per https://bugs.ruby-lang.org/issues/14387#note-16 it can't be accepted as is.

With the patch applied:
```
(irb):8:in `block in f': stack level too deep (SystemStackError)
        from (irb):8:in `each_value'
        from (irb):8:in `f'

        from /usr/local/bin/irb:25:in `load'
        from /usr/local/bin/irb:25:in `<main>'
```

Without the patch:

```

        from (irb):8:in `f'
        from (irb):8:in `block in f'

        from (irb):8:in `block in f'
        from (irb):8:in `each_value'

        from (irb):8:in `block in f'

        from /usr/local/bin/irb:25:in `<main>'
```

To reproduce, I have removed lines 102-105 from https://github.com/docker-library/ruby/blob/f5753434bb23041dd9913bb7b650e7be735e03c0/3.3/alpine3.19/Dockerfile. Check out the previous ticket for more information, there are a few conversations about possible solutions.
