Severity: important
Trying to draw an arc in tikz seems to cause Latex to lock up every
single time. It consumes all of one CPU core and only stops when you
hit Ctrl-C.
The following complete source will demonstrate the problem:
\documentclass{article}
\usepackage{tikz}
\begin{document}
\begin{tikzpicture}
\draw (6, 3) arc [radius=3, start angle=-90, end angle=90];
\end{tikzpicture}
\end{document}
The various parameters to the \draw don't seem to matter much. I've
tried a few and haven't managed to find one which doesn't demonstrate
the problem.
I've tested this on both 32-bit and 64-bit Squeeze installations.
Both had the same problem.
I've also tried the same source on a Wheezy installation (and on Mac OS)
and didn't see the problem.
Since it seems to have been fixed in the Wheezy version, this report is
probably of no more than documentary interest, but I'm submitting it for
the record. Had it been here when I hit the problem I could have saved
myself quite a bit of time.
