Ooops, when Love fixed the program from GnuC to "C" just before sending, the test apparently broke. (Seems like GCC extensions do not generate the same code as the equivalent C).

Let GCC create the array instead of calling malloc(), and it works/breaks as expected.

Most values below 256 will trigger some kind of crash. For a propolice hit, try 100.
