Agreed. Also, I think that although it's natural to worry about a bug we
know about causing an infinite loop, it's much more likely that a _new_
bug will cause one. I.e., every test we already carry is a candidate to
accidentally loop forever in this way. This is just the one we happen to
have seen. Once fixed, I don't know that it's at any more risk of
reocurring than any other problem.
