You don't even know the difference between
H calling D and H simulating D.

Even when H1 simulates D as soon as D reaches
its "return" statement there is no address on
its stack that D can return to. If H1 didn't
catch this it might crash the x86utm operating
system. Popping from an empty stack probably
can only return garbage.
