rubygems: psych: superclass mismatch for class Mark (TypeError)

Description

Is it possible to backport the following commits into Ruby?

Remove explicit psych activation
https://github.com/rubygems/rubygems/commit/1ccf0912a161d20e0c4a7b139fd76e8739a411ba

bundler: Remove explicit psych activation.
https://github.com/rubygems/rubygems/commit/88478bb56945ffa9868491cacd0bc74d9d73c848

It causes the following kind of error when psych is installed as not default gem but regular gem. It's a Fedora Ruby specific case. This is not the case of Ruby built from source normally.

$ cat test.rb 
require 'psych'
Gem.load_yaml # <= The error happens.

$ ruby test.rb
/usr/lib64/gems/ruby/psych-3.1.0/psych.so: warning: already initialized constant Psych::Parser::ANY
...
/usr/share/gems/gems/psych-3.1.0/lib/psych/parser.rb:34:in `<class:Parser>': superclass mismatch for class Mark (TypeError)

It is possibly also related to https://github.com/ruby/psych/issues/386 .

Thank you.

The error does not happen in Ruby 2.6.
So, it's great if it is backported to Ruby 2.7.

I can't see that error in 2.7 too.

After installing psych 3.1.0, no error found.
What's wrong in Fedora?

Just FTR, the patch just hides this issue, it does not resolve it.

The hacks with default gems are hiding a lot of issues. It would be nice if somebody helped to make them less exceptional 1. Or the --disable-gems option should possibly be removed if it is not properly supported anymore.

Also, I believe that call to require 'psych' should result to subsequent calls of require 'psych' to be no-op. This is apparently not the case.

What's wrong in Fedora?

Thank you for checking the issue on your environment.
In Fedora Ruby, there is no default gem psych gemspec: there is no file such as /usr/share/gems/specifications/default/psych-*.gemspec .
You can see https://github.com/rubygems/rubygems/issues/3629#issuecomment-630288731 for detail.

This is the wrong point. That's why I wrote "It's a Fedora Ruby specific case. This is not the case of Ruby built from source normally.".

Though this issue can happen in Upstream Ruby too, according to https://github.com/ruby/psych/issues/386 , I has not tried it on my environment.

And I was able to reproduce the error by Vit's way on upstream Ruby (Ruby built from the source).

BTW I don't understand how this could work:

$ for psych in psych{1..3}; do mkdir $psych; echo "puts '$psych'" > $psych/psych.rb; done

$ find .
.
./psych2
./psych2/psych.rb
./psych1
./psych1/psych.rb
./psych3
./psych3/psych.rb

$ ruby -e '(1..3).each {|psych| $:.unshift("psych#{psych}"); require "psych" }'
psych1
psych2
psych3

In my opinion, the call to require "psych" should succeed only once, no matter on the state of $LOAD_PATH. I can report this as separate ticket ...

Actually my original intention was to try this with disabled gems and it seems Ruby itself behaves as I would expect:

There was merged this 1 PR, which should resolve the issue even without removal of the gem call. I have not verified it myself, but the test case was modeled after my test case in comment #note-10, so I am positive about its functionality.
