Hi,

this code causes the Windows version to quit immediatly without an error:

> import List
> crash a b c = if b `isPrefixOf` a then c else crash a b (c + 1)

> crash "a" "b" 1

On Linux someone reported on comp.lang.functional that it produces the error
"ERROR - Garbage collector fails to reclaim sufficient space" and don't
crash.

Regards,

Frank
