Bug #8254: Ruby segfaults on second SystemStackError from parser
https://bugs.ruby-lang.org/issues/8254

Author: charliesome (Charlie Somerville)

=begin
When the parser overflows the stack, it raises SystemStackError.

The second time this happens, Ruby segfaults.

Code sample:

    n = 10_000 # adjust for your platform
    begin
      eval "1+" * n + "1"
    rescue SystemStackError
      eval "1+" * n + "1"
    end

=end
