Issue #2394 has been updated by Roger Pack.


ruby -e 'fork { puts }' doesn't seem to quite do it, though maybe it would if I ran it over and over again.

Here's a more minimalistic test for it (reproduces every time):

require 'forkoff' # gem
a = File.open('bii', 'w')
[1].forkoff { |n|
 a.write '1'
}
