Sorry but I was only trying this out since if I had managed to
reproduce it under xen I could do something about it :-)
I noticed that running the program on my machine froze my machine.
That's why I wrote the bug report ;)
Thanks for getting it working on your machine, but I already know it's a
stack overflow.
I'm just concerned that someone else may accidentally or deliberately
write a program that can freeze a machine when executing without
elevated privileges.
It's good to hear that at least with Xen, they can't.
