`Unexpected error 9 on netlink descriptor 34` during package add operation.

[oscardssmith]

On Julia 1.12.1 I just ran into a segfault for no apparent reason (I didn't ^C or anything):

(MyPkg) pkg> add LinearSolve@3
   Resolving package versions...
Unexpected error 9 on netlink descriptor 34.

[933559] signal 6 (-6): Aborted
in expression starting at none:0
Allocations: 114568033 (Pool: 114562563; Big: 5470); GC: 144
Aborted (core dumped)

I realize that this won't be especially useful without an RR trace, but reporting anyway in case someone can figure out what went wrong from the debug info.

Doesn't seem to be a segfault.

curl/curl#15725, do we have curl/curl@ff5091a on our julia curl build?

In 1.12.1 we have curl 8.11.1: https://github.com/JuliaLang/julia/blob/v1.12.1/stdlib/LibCURL_jll/Project.toml#L3. That commit seems to be in v8.12.0. I guess we need to backport it?

If that is what is causing this (I have no idea). I just googled a bit and found something that could be related to it.

I'm running into it rather often with DI tests, it's a bummer to have to relaunch failed jobs on every CI run

I wanted to test Julia nightly in JuliaPackaging/Yggdrasil#11683, but that seemed to be broken now: JuliaPackaging/Yggdrasil#11683 (comment). CC @IanButterworth

Ah, that's JuliaLang/julia#59956, sigh.
