Subject: cout.flush hangup

Maybe someone (not me) will want to fix this.  I guess the workaround is
to output a newline occasionally.

// This fails with a freshly installed djdev109, djgpo222, etc.
// The program prints about 512 x's, then the computer hangs and must be
// rebooted. Removing the cout.flush OR adding a \n after the x prevents
// any problems.

#include <iostream.h>

main()
{
  while (1) {
    cout << "x";
    cout.flush();
  }
}
