[erlang-questions] A simple multiply in the shell will kill theshell and its supervisor

[Steve Kirsch]

i'm using  R12B and I've tested on three completely different windows machines all running windows XP Pro and they all hang.

On Unix and using werl, things work fine.

so I'm not surprised that for most configurations it works fine.

Seems fine on my laptop too (XP3SP3/AMD64/R13A).
