Issue #22016 has been updated by luke-gru (Luke Gruber). Can you please provide the output of `lscpu` and/or `uname -a`? What happens when you install this exact version without pkgsrc, like from git or a tarball? Thanks. ---------------------------------------- Bug #22016: ruby segfaults regularly https://bugs.ruby-lang.org/issues/22016#change-117138 * Author: wiz (Thomas Klausner) * Status: Open * ruby -v: ruby 4.0.2 (2026-03-17 revision d3da9fec82) +PRISM [x86_64-netbsd] * Backport: 3.3: UNKNOWN, 3.4: UNKNOWN, 4.0: UNKNOWN ---------------------------------------- When using ruby 4.0.2 on NetBSD-11.99.5/x86_64, built from pkgsrc, I often get core dumps. Recently it was quite easy to get them using asciidoctor to build the documentation for vms-empire (but that is just one example). Here is the backtrace of the latest coredump: ``` GNU gdb (GDB) 17.1 Copyright (C) 2025 Free Software Foundation, Inc.
