? system_exec("ls ",0) 
puts(1,"done\n") 
while 1 do end while 

It has driven the compiler into an infinite loop.
In pEmit2.e, procedure scanforShortJmp(), line 723 the branch straightening checks to see if it is jumping to an unconditional jump and if it is, it hops direct to that target, which it also checks.
However if the offset on an unconditional jump is zero so it is jumping to itself, it will "follow that chain" forever:

                c2 = s5[c2]+5 
                offset += c2        -- ;- ) 
                s5[i3] = offset 
--31/1/21 
if c2=0 then exit end if 
            end while 

Alternatively, replace the offending loop(s):

--while 1 do end while 
while 1 do sleep(0.1) end while 
-- or 
{} = wait_key()
