I think you are a bit exaggerating the problem here. Actually, you
have a problem only if there is a line that starts with the word
"REBOL" followed by a block; this is a situation that may be
impossible for most data files. If you think it could happen in
some data file you use, then you just have to use save/header
instead of save, and the problem magically disappears.

This is a design issue of REBOL, and once you understand WHY that
gives "strange results" it is no more strange.

This might be an idea, but then you have more problems when you
save and then load strings... No, I don't think this would be a
good solution.

Perhaps this should be a server issue --- the server should have
timeouts for CGI, because if your CGI is not working correctly you
cannot expect it to timeout correctly (I'm talking generally here,
a CGI might be any kind of executable...)

I don't know why the GC hasn't been fixed yet. This is surely a
major defect in REBOL currently.
