Exception raised in ecdsa gem, not on jruby-head nor ruby-head

[rickhull]

I noticed a discrepancy in behavior between ruby-head and jruby-head on the one hand, and truffleruby-head on the other, via Github Actions.

Here is the GHA that fails only on truffleruby-head: https://github.com/rickhull/nostrb/actions/runs/10637157995/job/29490471421 The outermost test that fails is rake test, which succeeds entirely on ruby-head and jruby-head.

relevant stack trace:

The failure is in the ecdsa gem, here: https://github.com/DavidEGrayson/ruby_ecdsa/blob/master/lib/ecdsa/prime_field.rb#L62

Here is a more specific failure, this time from schnorr_sig gem directly, rather than nostrb via transitive dependency: https://github.com/rickhull/schnorr_sig/actions/runs/10640243873/job/29499643425
