[IronPython] IronPython console runs out of memory

[Martin Maly]

This is a valid bug - thanks for the repro. IronPython gets into infinite recursion when importing minidom. Of course, this is something we'll fix.

This one-liner causes IronPython console to run out of memory (2.05GB page file) and freeze Windows XP:

from xml.dom import minidom

This is the installation:

Microsoft Windows XP [Version 5.1.2600]
IronPython 1.0.2216 (Beta) on .NET 2.0.50727.42

python 2.4.2
pyxml 0.8.4
pywin32 205
py2exe 0.6.3

IRONPYTHONPATH = c:\python24\lib
