Hi Stef.

I understood as much as this guy wanted if anyone could reproduce it. And I understood that he himself was running an x86-system (which I mentioned). And then I just let you know that unix doesn't seem to be affected. Sorry if I did anything wrong.

Well, it dosen't do anything on my system (not sure if non-X86 systems are supposed to be affected...). Anyway, it just returns to the shell.

System running:
Apple MacOSX 10.3.4 [build 7H56]


Chii:~ Tiger$ perl -e "$a="A" x 256; system($a)"
Chii:~ Tiger$
