When a Stack Overflow occured the new prompt of the REPL becomes fragile an sometimes crashes on invalid inputs. A reliant way to make the REPL abort, is by triggering a stack overflow twice.

Affected Version: 2.0.13

Way to reproduce:

scheme@(guile-user)> (define x (lambda () (x) (x))) ;;; define a function provoking a stack-overflow scheme@(guile-user)> (x) (x) ;;; first call of this function is caught but second aborts the REPL
<unnamed port>:2:0: In procedure x:
<unnamed port>:2:0: Throw to key `vm-error' with args `(vm-run "VM: Stack overflow" ())'.

Entering a new prompt.  Type `,bt' for a backtrace or `,q' to continue.
[1]    13794 abort (core dumped)  guile
