It's not a 100% guarantee but for now that's how things stand, and it 
doesn't work in a narrowed buffer. So for simplicity's sake we can make 
it show an error with such instructions, I think.

I don't mind doing it the another way too, but if its return value is 
not used, that's not a very intuitive design.
