As I'm sure you know, Bitcoin's scripting language, as originally designed, is deliberately not Turing complete[1]. That's one of Ethereum's key points of difference with Bitcoin.
It's a very difficult challenge to keep control of resource use in any such decentralized system, and even more of a challenge when scripts can loop. It's going to be interesting to see if Ethereum can eventually work without frequent human intervention to modify the code. Even Bitcoin didn't quite get to that state yet.
