Hi,

It seems that the infinite loop

  let rec x =3D 1 :: x in x =3D x ;;

cannot be interrupted by Control-C in the interactive session of
Objective Caml 3.09.0, at least on linux-i386 and solaris-sparc.  Is
this a feature or a bug?

(I did some search and found the same question at

http://caml.inria.fr/pub/ml-archives/caml-list/2005/09/3440c94ff51afc4a5db2=
90c9d811f406.en.html

but there seems to be no answer...)

Thanks,

        Eijiro
