I do not understand well what you mean. I can only repeat:
1) On my system does not crash. It only stop with this error:
** Script Error: Not enough memory
2) The first line does not mold 'a, only copy it. (BTW Copy/deep should be
used to copy all the inner blocks).
3) The second line makes an implicit mold of 'a. But [second system/words]
can't be molded, because, i think, it has some circular reference which 'mold
is not so smart to catch and reduce.
