      On my machine, killop.js does not end queries with a "while( 1 )

      { ; }

      " where clause - the shell hangs for a long period of time. Seems like the root of the problem is the v8::Locker l; mutex in V8ScriptEngine::interrupt(). As far as I can tell, this never yields when there's other javascript executing.

      If this is expected behavior (or difficult to fix), the test case should probably be modified - adding a sleep( 1 ) to the loop allows the operation to be killed.

      Observed this generally through many versions of mongodb.
