Have you tried this on the latest POSE (3.0a7)? I ask because one of the
bugs fixes in the latest release has to do with POSE's previous allowance of
apps writing to stale pointers - 3.0a7 catches this immediately. On a real
device, the above code probably won't crash right away - it depends on what
you overwrite...
