Yes, that is probably (that is, not yet investigated) the cause for the oneliner
stack overflow crash (wonder if it would also cause Aldor to have a stack
overflow):

print(anydomain::OutputForm)

such as

print(Integer()::OutputForm)

and more reasonably (actual code for debugging, say):

print(typeOf(1)::OutputForm)

This seems to be mutual recursion with no end, thus stack overflow.
