The weirdest things is if I use a ruby event loop the problem seems to 
disappear, I have added this at the end of the first script I execute:

$running = true

while($running)
    Qt::Application.instance().processEvents(Qt::EventLoop::AllEvents | 
Qt::EventLoop::WaitForMoreEvents | Qt::EventLoop::DeferredDeletion)
end

Then I can execute other scripts, creating other objects inheriting either 
Qt::Object or Qt::Widget with slots and virtual functions.

And once I call a script with $running = false; this obviously quit my "ruby" 
event loop and it triggers the exception. And I see in my debug output that, 
indeed, the length of the ruby stack has become negative.
