Oh, my, What a shock! What a nightmare. Thanks, thanks thmpsn for 
opening our eyes. How can we have lived so many years with this 
permanent danger, and yet managed to write working, robust programs, I 
really wonder. Good God, we really need to fix this immediatly, because 
obviously, TRUSTING the programmer JUST CANT WORK.

Or can it ?
