Comment(by lsansonetti@…):

 Proc#call is currently not directly callable from C/ObjC. Can you try this
 workaround instead:

 {{{

 def main_thread( &block )
   o = Object.new
   def o.call
     @block.call
   end
   o.instance_variable_set(:@block, block)
   o.performSelectorOnMainThread( 'call', withObject: nil, waitUntilDone:
 true )
 end

 Thread.new do
   main_thread do
     [1,2,3].each {|i| puts i }
   end
 end
 }}}
