Infinite variable expansion

[ferd]

I had two env vars of the following form:

APP_DIRECT_METRICS_LOGDRAIN_URL=https://<user>:<pass>@host.com/logs?resolution=1&ignore_log_ts=true&resolution[key.val.term1]=60&resolution[key.val.term2]=60&resolution[key.val.term3]=60&...
APP_DIRECT_METRICS_LOGDRAIN_URL2=\$APP_DIRECT_METRICS_LOGDRAIN_URL\&\?source-prefix\=\$\{SOME_VAR-default\}

The whole pc compiler is thrown for an infinite loop growing either of the variable for longer and longer until the system gives up.

Has this been resolved by @cjkjellander's fixes?

no idea. I'm no longer working on projects that need this stuff.
