A call to port_command() could cause a scheduler to end up in an eternal loop if the port was busy and the calling process had incoming signals at the time of the call. This bug was introduced in OTP 23.3.2 (ERTS version 11.2.1), OTP 22.3.4.18 (ERTS version 10.7.2.10), and OTP 21.3.8.23 (ERTS version 10.3.5.18).

Full runtime dependencies of erts-10.3.5.19: kernel-6.1, sasl-3.3, stdlib-3.5
