While I was able to backport the patch, it still does not fix the crash
for me.

I'm attaching it in any case, but it would be nice if Ruby could be updated
to version 2.6 soonish as that version fixes the bug and has also been out
for a while now (since last year).

The new 2.6 version should also make some of the patches in debian/patches
obsolete.
