I mean, that's bad and scary, but you did mention that you were using a beta version of julia. Finding this sort of thing is exactly why the beta versions exist.

If the beta was stable and ready for production, it wouldn't be called beta...

Oh, the problem is present in 1.6.2(current stable release) as well as v1.5.4(released March '21 available under old releases). I could not find any other 1.5+ version to try.

Yes, my apologies, it was pointed out to me below that I misread your post.

I think you missed the point where he said the bug was present in the stable release, too.

Oh I see I did misunderstand. Yes, that is unfortunate. I'd guess that since this made it into a stable release, it's likely a pretty tricky bug to encounter, since the failure is so spectacular.

I will say though that bugs appearing in stable releases of any software is a bad, but practically unavoidable thing. It sucks that this bites people, but it's not what I'd really call instability.
