It would probably best to detect this changes too.
But since it would be more of a performance penality, i would like to
see it as an option of it's own. (even if only used in
debug/development, the penalty could be severe enough to hinter development)
Why detect those?
Well at current such a trick could actually be used intentionally. and
it could work well, if done correctly.
But I expect this behaviour is not defined/documented.
If the optimizer improves, the optimizer could do thinks that would make
any code fail, if it uses such tricks. So better to let people know now,
that it isn't safe.
