I can, using Lenny, xterm and sc 7.16-2.
Possible reason why trying to reproduce this bug could fail:
* LC_ALL is set, this overwrites LANG.
* You forgot to run "S locale".
* The locale is not generated.
Thus, steps to reproduce are:
* xterm & (to start a new xterm)
* In this new xterm do:
- export LC_ALL=de_DE.UTF-8
- grep "^$LC_ALL " /etc/locale.gen || echo "E: locale is not generated"
- sc -n
* In sc type:
- S locale (press return)
- =1.1 (press return)
* Buy an egg to bake on your CPU.
When I press ctrl-c in sc whilst looping I see:
syntax error: let A0 = 1<=.1
