Subject: [ruby-core:53840] [Backport93 - Backport #8187] timeout doesn't interrupt assignment.


Issue #8187 has been updated by robertgleeson (Robert Gleeson).


Tested against:
- ruby 1.9.3p194 (2012-04-20 revision 35410) [x86_64-darwin11.4.2]
- ruby 2.0.0p0 (2013-02-24 revision 39474) [x86_64-darwin11.4.2]

The behavior on 1.9.3 is to hang without being able to interrupt, and the behavior 
on 2.0.0 is to stop the code but not raise an exception.

Timeout does not interrupt & raise like usual with this example code:

require 'timeout'
Timeout.timeout(0.5) do
  x = " "*(2**31)
end
