CI Intermittent segmentation fault in Windows arm64 wheels test (vanilla CPython)

It's been seen so far (October 13) in 2 runs over 13 runs (see [scheduled Wheels runs](https://github.com/scikit-learn/scikit-learn/actions/workflows/wheels.yml?query=event%3Aschedule)):
- Python 3.12 [build log](https://github.com/scikit-learn/scikit-learn/actions/runs/18239153780/job/51938405934)
- Python 3.14 see [build log](https://github.com/scikit-learn/scikit-learn/actions/runs/18423960080/job/52502560141) from https://github.com/scikit-learn/scikit-learn/issues/32393#issuecomment-3396312539

The information is similar in both cases seems to point the finger at
```
sklearn\tree\tests\test_monotonic_tree.py", line 511 in test_nd_tree_nodes_values
```

Relevant part of the build log:

cc @khmyznikov and @vask2108 who did the work of adding Windows arm64 wheels: https://github.com/scikit-learn/scikit-learn/pull/31867. Maybe you have seen similar things in other packages and/or you would be willing to help debug this?

COMMENT:
So we might have a problem with the joblib "threading" backend on Windows arm64, but it's weird that we never got this problem on other platforms.

EDIT: non-Windows platforms use a write lock when doing the put call: https://github.com/python/cpython/blob/v3.14.0/Lib/multiprocessing/queues.py#L363 That might explain why we do not observe this exception on linux or macOS. But that does not explain why we never observed it on Windows amd64.

EDIT2: Actually we did observe it on Windows amd64 in the past: #30810.
