Bug Description
Binary package hint: zsh
I'm experiencing some weird problem with zsh, which is getting killed due to an apparent stack overflow.
It seems that commands like the following cause problems (notice the "!" inside
the command line; also, this "command" doesn't have newlines, I wrapped it for
better readability):
% AAAAAAAAAAAAAAA
AAAAAAAAAAAAAAA
AAAAAAAAAAAAAAA
AAAAAAAAAAAAAAA
(see attachment for crash info).
Additional info:
$ lsb_release -rd
Description: Ubuntu 8.10
Release: 8.10
(this also happens on a Debian Sid with zsh 4.3.9)
$ apt-cache policy zsh
zsh:
Installed: 4.3.6-4ubuntu1
Candidate: 4.3.6-4ubuntu1
