Gambas IDE no longer starts on my setup

After weekly updates of my Solus operating system Gambas IDE no longer starts. I get the following error message:
"This application has raised an unexpected error and must abort [6] Type mismatch: wanted String[], got String instead. [gb.jit].CCompilation.Wait.259"
I get similar JIT related errors if I try to compile the latest Gambas sourcecode:

The main website Gambas - Gambas Almost Means Basic was linking me to an old version https://gitlab.com/gambas/gambas/-/archive/3.20.2/gambas-3.20.2.tar.bz2 which I guess was faulty.
Once I found the latest version https://gitlab.com/gambas/gambas/-/archive/stable/gambas-stable.tar.bz2 from git and now everything works as they normally have been working.
I wonder if something changed with jit compiler and Benoit had to make changes to his code to make it compatible again. I hope long age for Benoit. It would be a shame having to use computers without Gambas.
My bad, sorry.

Open Terminal and run this command GB_NO_JIT=1 && gambas3. Let us know if that works for you.
Thank you cogier. You guys are always so kind and reliable.

Yes, this was discussed in a few different threads at the time.
Gambas One - Gambas ONE
Gambas One - Gambas ONE
Gambas One - Gambas ONE
something changed in gcc and clang (that is used by JIT) that broke JIT.
Benoit worked around the issue as soon as it was identified, so you just need a later version of gambas (or an earlier version of gcc)

Does anyone know what is JIT in GNU/Linux?
I know what it is in Gambas.
It's a "Just in time" Compiler
gambas can compile "on the fly" c programs.
parts of the code are converted to run as c programs that are natively faster than gambas code.
