I get that. It's probably related to how many libraries you use and a lot of other things? There might be pathological ways to make it happen more frequently. It all depends on how and when it happens though.

Well, we're using a large number of gems, a number of which rely on native code.

This issue is no doubt a pain in the ass for gem authors to debug, but it's definitely not something that library users are running into with any sort of frequency.
