----------------------------------------
Dear Ruby people,

Here is a fix for a segfault which can occur when requiring a Ruby source file inside a Timeout.timeout {} block. This may seem like a strange thing
to do, but it can easily happen unintentionally if you use libraries which 'autoload' their source files (like RSpec, Rails, etc).

I have observed this segfault in MRI 2.1.2 and 2.3.0.

Thanks,
Alex Dowad
