Julia 1.8.4, 1.8.5 and 1.9.0-beta3 crash with XGBoost.jl and LIBSVM.jl under Windows 11 #48187
Description
I am using LIBSVM.jl v0.8.0, and XGBoost.jl v2.2.0, under Windows 11.
It works fine with Julia 1.8.3:
julia> versioninfo()
Julia Version 1.8.3

Platform Info:
OS: Windows (x86_64-w64-mingw32)
CPU: 16 × Intel(R) Core(TM) i9-10885H CPU @ 2.40GHz
WORD_SIZE: 64
LIBM: libopenlibm
LLVM: libLLVM-13.0.1 (ORCJIT, skylake)
Threads: 8 on 16 virtual cores
Environment:
JULIA_EDITOR = code
JULIA_NUM_THREADS = 8
But when I uses Julia 1.8.4:
julia> versioninfo()
Julia Version 1.8.4

running any function of LIBSVM.jl or XGBoost.jl kills my Julia session, for instance after doing:
using XGBoost
(X, y) = (randn(100,4), randn(100))
then the command below;
bst = xgboost((X, y))
kills the process and closes directly Julia without any printed error in the terminal.
I created a thread at Discourse but got no solution.
I already opened two issues: JuliaML/LIBSVM.jl#95 and dmlc/XGBoost.jl#153. The second raised unexplained error on windows.
Both LIBSVM.jl and XGBoost.jl wrap C/C++ code; this may be linked.
Did somebody observe the same problem and know what could happen?
