      I'm not positive which group to assign this to, since I can't get much in
      the way of debugging info. I found the problem while testing some other
      problems I found with the java2demo (see 4377282 for example), so I'm
      guessing 2D for a first shot.

      To reproduce, run the java2demo.
      Open the Options menu, and leave it open.
      When the demo reaches the end, it will hang the system completely.

      I was not able to get any debugging info, since I couldn't kill the demo
      except by ctrl-alt-del. Note: you have to press ctrl-alt-del twice to get
      the system to reboot.

      If you have a working Merlin win32 build, you could copy MSVCRTD.DLL into it
      (it isn't there in Win95, and we don't put it in the builds), but I don't
      have a working build. This would allow you to run in debug mode (-g).

      I am running Win95 on an old, slow PC (233 MHz pentium).
      The monitor is also old: I am running with 256 colors.

      Did not happen with Windows NT Server on the same machine.

      ---------

      Note that the user was running java2demo from the jdkx script, which
      automatically uses the parameters:
      -runs=1 -delay=5 -ccthread
