Oh, I don't know - in many ways, it's easier to hammer on the outside than
to look at the source. You can find a buffer overflow, generally, much
quicker by passing in huge buffers than by poring line-by-line through the
code and trying to figure out where it might be possible.
Um... not that I've tried that myself, you understand... oh no.
