Best bug of the day: to chase pointers from origin, if origin marked done {} else {chase pointers from children of origin; mark origin done} The worst thing is knowing that 15 year old me wouldn't have done that. 45 year old me did it this morning, halfway down his first coffee.

I clearly wasn't entirely rational.

I did pretty much exactly that a couple of months ago and stared at it for ages, convinced it couldn't possibly be wrong and it must be a bug in the compiler.

I didn't suspect Simon's compiler. I spent quite some time suspecting both the object-compiler and the meta-compiler-interpreter. More the latter, though. Mostly, I panicked about being too strict. It turned out I was being an eejit.

Ah yes. I would have been less suspicious if the compiler had been Simon's!
