Didn't help.

I can't, however, reproduce this locally on my workstation.

I remember hitting this type of issue with kgio whenever I did rebuilds of all
Ruby packages on an Amazon EC2 instance, and then couldn't reproduce it
locally.

If you want to give a closer look I can give you access to the VM I use for
these builds, where I can consistently reproduce this.

In Debian we don't even have 2.2 anymore. The only things using kgio are
unicorn and rainbows. Maybe if their dependency on kgio could be skipped on
Ruby 2.3, we could drop kgio from Debian.
