I beg to differ.  An interactive system like this, with a command
line, and command line editing using control characters, should NEVER
crash on a ^C.  It would be polite for it to respond to ^C with a
message telling the user to "stop now" to exit the program.  Oh, and
even if you insist that it must be ^C killable, it shouldn't be doing
what it does anyway: it's obviously trying to handle the interrupt,
and failing at it, and dying with an ill mem ref.  If that's not a
bug, I don't know what is.  :-)
