rb_profile_frames() is used by profilers in a way such that it can run on any instruction in the binary, and it crashed previously in the following situation in `RUBY_DEBUG` builds: ``` * thread #1, queue = 'com.apple.main-thread', stop reason = step over frame #0: 0x00000001002827f0 miniruby`vm_make_env_each(ec=0x0000000101866b00, cfp=0x000000080c91bee8) at vm.c:992:74 989 } 990 991 vm_make_env_each(ec, prev_cfp); -> 992 VM_FORCE_WRITE_SPECIAL_CONST(&ep[VM_ENV_DATA_INDEX_SPECVAL], VM_GUARDED_PREV_EP(prev_cfp->ep)); 993 } 994 } 995 else { (lldb) call rb_profile_frames(0, 100, $2, $3) /Users/alan/ruby/vm_core.h:1448: Assertion Failed: VM_ENV_FLAGS:FIXNUM_P(flags) ruby 3.5.0dev (2025-09-23T20:20:04Z master 06b7a70837) +PRISM [arm64-darwin25] -- Crash Report log information -------------------------------------------- See Crash Report log file in one of the following locations: * ~/Library/Logs/DiagnosticReports * /Library/Logs/DiagnosticReports for more details.

The double crash also shows that in `RUBY_DEBUG` builds, the crash reporter was previously not resilient to corrupt frame state. In release builds, it prints more info. Add unchecked APIs for the crash reporter and profilers so they work as well in `RUBY_DEBUG` builds as non-debug builds.
What is Ruby?
Ruby is an interpreted object-oriented programming language often used for web development. It also offers many scripting features to process plain text and serialized files, or manage system tasks. It is simple, straightforward, and extensible.
Features of Ruby
- Simple Syntax
- Normal Object-oriented Features (e.g. class, method calls)
- Advanced Object-oriented Features (e.g. mix-in, singleton-method)
- Operator Overloading
- Exception Handling
- Iterators and Closures
- Garbage Collection
- Dynamic Loading of Object Files (on some architectures)
- Highly Portable (works on many Unix-like/POSIX compatible platforms as well as Windows, macOS, etc.) cf. https://docs.ruby-lang.org/en/master/maintainers_md.html#label-Platform+Maintainers
