    In relation to the Bash Blues thread, I have something that may be of
interest.

eval `perl -e 'print ":;" x 97500'`

This causes bash to crash too sig 11. I don't know if this means anything
or not, but who knows, it may be useful to someone else. The number 97500
is most likely a lot higher that it needs to be but I have noticed that
when I have tried this on different machines, it takes slightly different
amounts of :; to get it to crash.
