Probably; because vfork only pauses MJIT thread; not any Ruby threads.

exec will already close because of FD_CLOEXEC, so this only
happens in short window between vfork+exec.  Not worth closing
ourselves because it only delays exec.

So MJIT thread should become a Ruby thread which can acquire GVL
on vfork (or evented/thread-less MJIT can happen).  But no time
for me.
