[erlang-bugs] A funny bug

[Tony Rogvall]

I was inspecting the new, and long awaited for, fix of 'receive' in erl_eval.

I could not help myself to wonder what would happened if:

5> self() ! x, prim_eval:'receive'(fun(X) -> receive Y -> Y end end, 1000). 

Bus error: 10

I know you should not use prim_eval in this manner, but I tend to ignore recommendations.
But this construct should probably not crash the VM.
