Bug in Windows 7 RTM

Windows 7 RTM had already been available for Technet and MSDN subscriber since August 6 to a much anticipated welcome. However, this particlar issue looks strangely out of place and makes you wonder how exactly this passed through validation:

To Reproduce:

1) Run an elevated CMD prompt
2) Run CHKDSK /r
3) With task manager open, you should see your memory quickly gobbled away in the chkdsk.exe process until it either stops at or around 90% or it maxes completely out and crashes the computer.

**note, this will only occur if you have second or multiple hard drives, it does not happen on the drive installed with the OS.
