​I guess that using the return register to look at the preceding
instruction to ensure it is a BASSM is covered by "misbehave"?​ Given my
somewhat acerbic sense of humor, I would likely cause an S0C1, followed
immediately by a short character string expressing displeasure with
whomever wrote the offending calling code. Hopefully I won't be channeling
"Walter" (Jeff Dunham character) at the time.
