Description

Observed behaviour

Test failures in TestProcess#test_daemon_noclose. Output as follows:

Run options:
  --seed=56670
  "--ruby=./miniruby -I../src/lib -I. -I.ext/common  ../src/tool/runruby.rb --extout=.ext  -- --disable-gems"
  --excludes-dir=../src/test/.excludes

objc[89134]: +[NSPlaceholderMutableString initialize] may have been in progress in another thread when fork() was called. We cannot safely call it or ignore it in the fork() child process. Crashing instead. Set a breakpoint on objc_initializeAfterForkError to debug.

Expected behaviour

I expect the tests to all pass with no errors.

Notes

This started happening for me immediately after upgrading my laptop to the latest macOS using the software update tool. Versions reported are:

Command Line Tools for Xcode                       16.0       23/09/2024, 14:24:42
macOS Sequoia 15.0                                 15.0       23/09/2024, 14:41:14

This appears to be the same issue as seen in https://bugs.ruby-lang.org/issues/18912

I can replicate it using the same minimal repro that @katei (Yuta Saito) described in https://bugs.ruby-lang.org/issues/18912#note-15

Process.daemon(false, true)
Dir.pwd

and can confirm that exporting the variable OBJC_DISABLE_INITIALIZE_FORK_SAFETY=YES suppresses the error.

This behaviour was tested on this commit https://github.com/ruby/ruby/commit/4c3727c6ac
