Make that value odd. That will also guarantee a GPF on

Ha, I missed that. Nice!

The classics:
0xFFFFDEAD dead
0xFFFFD1ED died
Not so obvious:
0xFFFFFA1D failed
0xFFFFACED (the result makes you dumb) faced
0xFFFFFEED don't feed me with this
0xFFFFDF0F don't follow (this pointer) or (you are) f*****
You missed the best classic: 0xDEADBEEF
