(Segmentation fault): protoc failed when building

[peleyal]

Disclaimer: I just upgraded my MAC to Monterey (12.0.1) a few days ago, and I think that this issue started just after.

What version of protobuf and what language are you using?
Version: v3.13.0 and I also tried v3.19.1
Language: Python

What operating system (Linux, Windows, ...) and version?
MacOS Monterey (12.0.1)

What runtime / compiler are you using (e.g., python version or gcc version)
Python 3.9.6

What did you do?
Steps to reproduce the behavior:
(I Just pushed peleyal/peleyal@5dc65ae for that purpose...)

1. Clone the stupid repo https://github.com/peleyal/peleyal
2. bazel build ...

What did you expect to see
Success build :)

What did you see instead?

peleyal$ bazel build ...

Make sure you include information that can help us debug (full error message, exception listing, stack trace, logs).

Anything else we should know about your project / environment

Thank you! I really appreciate your time.

I would guess that this is probably the same issue as #8884.

This is fixed in Bazel 4.2.2 by bazelbuild/bazel#14275
