I know we like to pretend this is "feature", but isn't it time to treat it as a bug?
on one hand it is not a bug, as pd is a progarmming languge, like for(;;); is not a bug, it's a feature as well as while(); so ..
but havind a simple C progarmm in for(;;) doesn't cause much trouble, SIGINT usualy kills it .. may be some protection should be considered for [bang(--[until], so it doesn't cause the system such a DoS in this way.. i haven't actually tested this thing yet .. is it really true , or somehow you can kill pd when it get in such a loop ?
