Thank you for looking into this! I saw the minutes of the discussion at https://github.com/ruby/dev-meeting-log/blob/master/2024/DevMeeting-2024-04-17.md#misc-20422-bugfix-release-processhsbt--misc-20432-proposal-for-workflow-changes-re...jrochkind (jonathan rochkind)

Note the StringIO is _not_ transcoding. it is simply changing the encoding "tagging" of the String without changing any bytes. If the string was ASCII-8BIT (ie BINARY), there is really *no way* to transcode. But here's an example whe...jrochkind (jonathan rochkind)
I'm concerned that `then` is used in Promises, and is already in use in many promise-implementing libraries, including [concurrent-ruby](http://ruby-concurrency.github.io/concurrent-ruby/Concurrent/Promise.html). The Promise librarie...jrochkind (jonathan rochkind)
Hello, can you explain why this issue closed? I hope it is seen as a bug? While small changes make it not reproduce, I believe a core dump crash is a bug regardless? Especially when did not that cause that on earlier versions of ruby?jrochkind (jonathan rochkind)
Sorry accidentally double-reported, the issue tracker gave me an error on first submit and I thought it hadn't been submitted. Close in favor of https://bugs.ruby-lang.org/issues/14403 jrochkind (jonathan rochkind)
