CTRL-C stops ocave

[Daniel Heiserer]

Hi,
I use 2.0.14 for a view days now.
My operating system is Irix-6.5, 
octave was compiled on IRIX-6.4.
I ran into a problem I had with matlab
too. :-((

Normally if I use <CTRL>-C sending 
a sig-int to octave I expect octave
to skip the current input and prompt
for a new one OR terminate a running
m-file/function. 
Unfortunately I ran into this problem
that octave seems to get a sig-kill (and crashes).
This is a little bit fishy for me,
because I had the same problem with IRIX-6.4
and matlab!!!! before.

Can anybody reproduce this error using 2.0.14 on
any other non IRIX operating system?
Can anybody reproduce this error using 2.0.14
on IRIX-6.4/6.5?

Does anybody know how to fix this?
