Description
Using the gem2.4 package manager for ruby 2.4, I noticed that it crashes if ran as a normal user.
When this happens, it is not possible to control-C the process from the terminal window. A process named ruby24 is left consuming CPU cycles. I had to kill the process with sudo killall -ABRT ruby24
No diagnostic reports are available in ~/Library/Logs or /Library/Logs
I'll attach a diagnostic message copied from Terminal window.

gem2.4 crashes as non-root user on El Capitan, it is OK on Catalina.

I discovered there was a ~/.gem folder from when I was experimenting with gems a year ago. I moved the folder to ~/.gem-save and now gem2.4 works as a normal user. It's possible that gems from various versions of Ruby are not co-existing properly in my .gem folder.
I'll have to read the documentation for tips on how to fix this properly, but for the moment I regard this bug as fixed.
