RubySpec #3757: GC bug after loading gem
http://redmine.ruby-lang.org/issues/show/3757

Author: Joel VanderWerf
Status: Open, Priority: Normal

This bug is very general. All you have to do is:

1) require enough of the stdlib
2) require some gem
3) GC.stress=3Dtrue
4) create a few objects

See the attached gcbug.rb.

The bug appears on both x86_64-linux and i686-linux.

It does not happen with ruby-1.9.2, AFAICT.

It does happen with both p302 and p299 of ruby-1.8.7.

The bug is typically reported as one of the following:

gcbug.rb:24: [BUG] Segmentation fault
ruby 1.8.7 (2010-08-16 patchlevel 302) [x86_64-linux]

gcbug.rb:24: [BUG] rb_gc_mark(): unknown data type 0x18(0x1bbaf00) non ob=
ject
ruby 1.8.7 (2010-08-16 patchlevel 302) [x86_64-linux]
