I cannot attach gdb for running process because my Alpine development
boxes are lxc containers where CAP_SYS_PTRACE is not enabled afaik.

I installed musl-dbg and run program with 'gdb .build/crystal' and result is:
----------
Reading symbols from .build/crystal...
(gdb) run
Starting program: /home/mps/aports/community/crystal/src/crystal-0.35.1/.build/crystal

Program received signal SIGSEGV, Segmentation fault.
0x00007ffff401c463 in GC_find_limit_with_bound () from /usr/lib/libgc.so.1

(gdb)
----------

Same with 'thread apply all bt'.

gc lib (garbage collector, https://hboehm.info/gc/) version is
gc-dev-8.0.4-r1 on Alpine.

I can't test this on native machine because currently I don't have any
x86_64 with enough resources to build crystal. On aarch64 it even can't
be built with mt-fork patch, hangs always during build.
