Hi Andrei, would you mind opening an issue for this, making a comment in a merged PR does not help to see it. Thanks On Fri, 5 Oct 2018, 20:09 Andrei Chis, <chisvasileandrei@gmail.com> wrote:

Hi,
Executed in the latest Pharo 7 image (Pharo-7.0.0+alpha.build.1310.sha.a454977bb3d55bc4fcca3a57ac2fafcf137c0f30 (64 Bit)) the code below blocks the image (both with latest and stable vm on MacOs HighSierra). The vm does not crash but gets into a "Not Responding" state and does not get out:
Class new superclass: GLMTransmission; setFormat: GLMTransmission format; classLayout: GLMTransmission classLayout copy; yourself
Code like this is used in Moose in some tests and in SmaCC in the rewrite engine:
Class new superclass: SmaCCRewriteMatchContext; setFormat: SmaCCRewriteMatchContext format; classLayout: SmaCCRewriteMatchContext classLayout copy; yourself.
This worked in Pharo 6. Bug or here should be a different way to do this?
Cheers, Andrei
