Z:gnu-www-ja-gnu-overflow--da77d9-The recursive acronym =26ldquo;G/en

The recursive acronym &ldquo;GNU's Not Unix&rdquo; harbors a stack overflow bug that can cause the English language to crash and may allow arbitrary linguistic commands to be executed, according to a message posted on gnu.acronym.bug this morning. All sites running GNU software are urged to apply a temporary patch which changes the expansion of the acronym to &ldquo;GNU Needs Users&rdquo;, until a permanent patch is avaliable. GNU project founder Richard M. Stallman is currently hunting the error in the acronym he created over a decade ago.
