+Think about what the compiler might do to your code. Suppose you write
+the following to test your virtual memory implementation's ability to
+expand the stack:
+@example
+int main (void) @{
+ int array[4096];
+ array[123] = 234;
+ return 0;
+@}

+write to the array is never used again and thereby decide not to write
+it at all. The result is that your test does not test anything at all.
