It is folly to diagnose nasal demons by their effects. All you can
know is that a nasal demon exists, but not its true nature by
observing the effects
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nasal_demons
On your machine, the GUI doesn't crash. On some other machine, some
other time, with a different memory layout, the GUI may crash.
The nasal demon is the stack overflow. Matlab has a hard stack limit
on the interpreter. Should we do the same for Octave instead of
depending on the OS to control the number of stack frames?
