Rust would be some borrow checker compile error like

borrowed data escapes outside of associated function
argument requires that `'1` must outlive `'static`

News at Ten: Borrowed Data Escapes Outside of Associated Function

Not in safe Rust. Only if you explicitly tell the compiler "I got this, don't worry" but then fuck up.

I guess they fixed the weirdness involving calling main later in the program
