User-agent: Mutt/1.10.1 (2018-07-13)

as per instructions, bug finding:
The old system 9.2 let you do stupid things like
(/ (expt 2 10000000000) (expt 2 10000000000))
and you would get a warning about running out of memory.
In 10.2.1 in just hangs (the REPL:listen in edwin doesn't 
change to REPl:eval) and according to my process monitor on OSX
the cpu is churning away at 100%.
