It's not specific to /dev/urandom, it happens with a filehandle for a
file with plain ASCII chars:
use v6;
Thread.start({
my $fh = open('/tmp/blah');
say $fh.read(16);
say "alive";
});
say "main program ending";
$ cat /tmp/blah
The quick brown fox jumped over the lazy dogs.
$ perl6 bug.pl6
main program ending
Buf[uint8]:0x<54 68 65 20 71 75 69 63 6b 20 62 72 6f 77 6e 20>
alive
Segmentation fault (core dumped)
$ cat /tmp/blah | perl6
