OCaml 5 has (had) issues with signals and signals handlers, e.g., ocaml/ocaml#12253 and ocaml/ocaml#13189
It would therefore make sense to enhance the test suite with a test exercising these runtime parts.
Likely some combination of the following could be a good starting point:

  • signals and handlers,
  • allocations,
  • plain computation (tak?)
  • GC (implicitly or explicitly called?)
  • both tail, non-tail, and C-calls

This was suggested by @talex5 who has by bitten by the above.
