 Use rb_protect() to run your code.

 Something like

    ruby_init();
    ruby_init_loadpath();
    result = rb_protect(some_functions, some_args, &status);

 some_functions() will call rb_require(), ...

      rb_eval_string_protect("require '/nonexistent/file'", &status);

B> still generates the SEGV and core dump
