The second example I provided actually ends up overwriting EIP with NULL in
WebKit nightly. Marking as security sensitive - control over EIP could lead to
arbitrary code execution. I have no proof that this can be used to overwrite
EIP with anything but NULL, but I can't prove that it's impossible.
