[racket] DrRacket Crashes?

I just updated to 5.3.1 and appear to need a slightly different set of
steps to cause the error:

1. Start Dr. Racket
2. Paste the above code in the definitions pane
3. Press CTRL+R
*4. Left-click the 'stop' button--'user break' appears, and the animation
keeps going*
5. Press CTRL+R

The error message is the typical windows "DrRacket.exe has stopped
working".  The 'details' are:

Files that help describe the problem:
  C:\Users\user\AppData\Local\Temp\WER2B0.tmp.WERInternalMetadata.xml
