UPDATE: I got this working by re-flashing the firmware, using the procedure described here http://www.hpmuseum.org/forum/thread-404...l#pid65729 . So it looks like this was a false alarm.
Steps to reproduce:
1. Enter CAS mode
2. Enter `solve(x*y=0)`
3. Press Enter to evaluate
4. If the calculator doesn't reboot immediately, copy and evaluate the command a few more times (the first time seems to be enough to corrupt memory, but it doesn't always reboot immediately)
Observed behavior: Calculator reboots
Software Version: 2016 08 29 (10637)
I did a reset to factory settings.
I also tried reproducing this on the Android emulator, but wasn't able to do so.
I'm not sure if this is a regression or not. Is anyone still running an older firmware and willing to test this out?
