The following program, compiled as C in a Win95 DOS box, writes
"Abort!" and then stops as one would expect. But when I hit return
at the next DOS prompt Win95 kills my DOS box and tells me I should
stop all programs and reboot (although I don't seem to have to). If
I run it under old DOS, there is no problem.

#include <stdlib.h>

int main(int argc, char** argv)
{
	abort();
}

Not too complicated, huh?

Could somebody else try this on Win95 to see whether this is a
general problem or if it is just me, please?
