Why does my terminal window freeze when I try to compile from the Linux command prompt using MATLAB Compiler 4.1 (R14SP1)?

Using Bash 2.05b and MATLAB Compiler 4.1 (R14SP1) on a Red Hat Linux 8.0 machine, my terminal window freezes if I try to compile some files or interrupt the compilation process using ^C. The only way to unfreeze it is to use the RESET shell command.

This bug has been fixed in Release 2006a (R2006a). For previous product releases, read below for any possible workarounds:

This has been verified as a bug in MATLAB Compiler 4.1 (R14SP1) in the way MCC is executed from the Bash shell in Redhat 8.0. To work around this issue, you may either run MCC from the MATLAB command prompt or use a different shell (such as the C-shell).
