What steps will reproduce the bug?

On Linux using Node.js 22:

git clone git@github.com:remcohaszing/typescript-bug-58369.git
cd typescript-bug-58369
npm ci
tsc

How often does it reproduce? Is there a required condition?

For this reproduction it’s reproduced consistently on Linux on both my machine and GitHub actions.

While troubleshooting by trimming down the content of node_modules/@types/mdast/index.d.ts, I got into a state where it seemed to happen randomly. The major factor is the 👉 emoji in a comment.

The error did not occur on macOS in the GitHub action, but it did happen consistently for @wooorm on their macbook.

The problem was not reproducible on Windows.

What is the expected behavior? Why is that the expected behavior?

No segmentation fault

What do you see instead?

Segmentation fault (core dumped)

Additional information

This was originally reported to TypeScript: microsoft/TypeScript#58369. This issue contains more information.

This has coincidentally already been fixed for the upcoming TypeScript 5.5. Still, a segfault should not occur.

We were unable to make a smaller reproduction.
