We actually tested against 2.2.5, and we're seeing identical behavior to 2.3.1.

I'm going to file an issue against Celluloid on Github and reference this ticket.

----------------------------------------
This is my first bug reporting, so I'm sorry if this isn't exactly correct format. I'll update my report accordingly if pointed in the right direction.

I ran into what appears to be a bug while doing a quiz.

I've included the breaking code, the test suite and the description of the quiz as attachments to this bug report.

The following code works fine on Ruby 2.2.4.

```ruby
class Prime
  def self.nth(num)
    error(num)
    primes = build_primes(num)
    primes.last
  end

  private

  def build_primes(num)
    primes = [2]
    index  = 3 
    until primes.size == num
      if example?(index, primes)
        primes << index
      end
      index += 1
    end
    primes
  end

  def error(num)
    unless num > 0
      raise ArgumentError
    end
  end

  def example?(index, primes)
    primes.each do |prime|
      if index % prime == 0
        return false
      end
    end
    true
  end
end
```

It raises this error in Ruby 2.3.0

```
ThreadError: deadlock; recursive locking
    /home/clayton/.rubies/ruby-2.3.0/lib/ruby/2.3.0/singleton.rb:140:in `synchronize'
    /home/clayton/.rubies/ruby-2.3.0/lib/ruby/2.3.0/singleton.rb:140:in `instance'
    /home/clayton/.rubies/ruby-2.3.0/lib/ruby/2.3.0/singleton.rb:142:in `block in instance'

    /home/clayton/exercism/ruby/nth-prime/nth_prime.rb:3:in `nth'
    nth_prime_test.rb:28:in `test_first'
```

If this is expected behavior, I'm sorry in advance for wasting your time.
