"dead beef" is a better initial value to use, IMHO

If C functions are being used, then a macro declaration of "RETURN"
to trace the current stack pointer (perhaps simply by saving it to a
known location in memory if it's less than the previously-saved
value), prior to an actual return may be of use. I've not tried
that; but it may be useful.
