You are wrong. Calling shellexecute tens of times is very common. Just
consider when editing an html file, saving and viewing the file may happen
more than once a minute, so in less than 30 minutes it will hit the bug. Or
when opening files with an external application in dired, if you open more
than 30 files with shellexecute, it will hit the bug, which is not
unlikely. Afterwards, after quitting the debugger, a few more times of
calling the function and emacs will hang permanently.
