toField() leads to a crash

[glenndavis52]

input:

Qi  =  toField( QQ[i]/(i^2+1) )

R   = Qi[u,v]

(u + v) / i

output:

Without the toField(), all is OK.

I am using:
Macaulay2Web
Macaulay2, version 1.22.0.1

Yes this is the same issue that was reported before in the mailing list. It's my fault, I inadvertently let a PR slip into the web version which has not been tested thoroughly yet, namely, fraction fields of iterated polynomial rings.
In normal M2 you'd just get the error message error: not implemented yet: fraction fields of polynomial rings over rings other than ZZ, QQ, or a finite field. The way to avoid this is to not ask M2 to use the fraction field:

i4 : (u+v)*i^-1

o4 = - i*u - i*v

o4 : Qi[u..v]
