Correction: the SystemStackError did not occur in this case.

This led me to think that there was just too much state information
(modules, classes, variables, etc.) being loaded into the Ruby
interpreter embedded in my C program.

This makes sense because my C program and the Ruby extension I was
building had worked perfectly fine until I registered a new module
function with the Ruby interpreter. From this point onwards, I
started getting SystemStackErrors whenever any additional state
information was loaded onto the Ruby interpreter embedded in my C
program.
