 No, not really

 The problem, I think, is that when rb_thread_trap_eval() is executed
 the main_thread lost its status and wait_for (call to
 rb_thread_ready(main_thread)).

 At the end of the code executed by #trap, the main_thread has the status
 THREAD_RUNNABLE and wait_for = 0, this is why ruby enter in the accept(2)

 Perhaps a solution is to save these values (in th_status and th_wait_for
 before the call to rb_thread_ready(main_thread)) and restore it when ruby
 execute thread_switch(RESTORE_TRAP)
