Bug #10941: SIGSEGV caused by Rake on Windows

[djberg96 (Daniel Berger)]

Ruby 2.2.1
Windows 7
Compiled with VS 2013

I'm getting a segfault when trying to run the default (test) task for a project called file-find:

https://github.com/djberg96/file-find

It's a fairly simple project, and the relevant tasks in the Rakefile look like this:

CLEAN.include("**/*.gem", "**/*.rbc", "**/link*")

Rake::TestTask.new do |t|
  task :test => 'clean'
  t.warning = true
  t.verbose = true
end

task :default => :test

When I step through the rake code, it seems to choke here

C:/Ruby22VC/lib/ruby/2.2.0/rake/task.rb:172:      @lock.synchronize do

I'm not sure how to narrow it down any further. Please let me know if there's any more information I can provide.

• Backport changed from 2.0.0: UNKNOWN, 2.1: UNKNOWN, 2.2: UNKNOWN to 2.0.0: DONTNEED, 2.1: REQUIRED, 2.2: REQUIRED

I succeeded to reproduce this with 2.1.5 and trunk (but not with 2.0.0).

Minimum case is simple:

C:\foo> mkdir test

C:\foo> copy con Rakefile
task :default => :test
^Z

C:\foo> rake

Oops, sorry, some lines are missed.
Correct minimum case is:

require 'rake/clean'
require 'rake/testtask'

Rake::TestTask.new do |t|
  task :test => 'clean'
end

task :default => :test

• Backport changed from 2.0.0: DONTNEED, 2.1: REQUIRED, 2.2: REQUIRED to 2.0.0: DONTNEED, 2.1: DONTNEED, 2.2: REQUIRED

My rake batchfile of 2.1.5 ran trunk ruby...
There is no problem in 2.1.5.

I succeeded to reproduce this more simple case:

C:\> ruby -e "" test\test_*.rb

So, rake is not needed.
This is a problem of commandline grobbing processing.
