No beans to spill.  I always worry about random storage corruption, and
I don't think it's ever a good idea to deliberately induce it unless you
know exactly what storage you will corrupt.

I don't know that anything particularly nasty will happen if you run
this program - I really don't have any idea what got updated when I made
that first call.  Even if the storage that it updates is in the current
job's memory space, are you really willing to poke a stick randomly into
your job and stir it around?
