Comment (by Isaac Dupree):
Could be. Compared to 6.6, though, it's not really a regression, in fact
it's an improvement (in 6.6.1 no amount of memory will allow it to finish
-- I think that might have been a quadratic-behavior bug that was fixed.
I don't think "stack overflow" is really a regression from "fails to
terminate on valid code"?)
As for the second part of my report (large alex files), I haven't tested
it with 6.6.1, but I'm sure it wouldn't terminate, since in 6.6.1 the
large list literals alone would ensure that.
