Well this was the easiest way to show it; the same problem appears when forking form inside httpuv or so.
Anyway, my hunch was correct - it's libcurl crashing in SSL trying to use CF.
I wish there was at least way to make situations like these fail more gracefully... it's fine if the misbehaved child proc is killed, but it's a bit painful that it also takes down its parent(s). There's nothing we can do to catch these situations before it is too late?
