Something about this rubs me the wrong way. You can get completely different behaviour depending on which architecture you boot on.

This is always true for every program written in most languages (very few languages have zero dependencies on the architecture, particularly if you include endianness).

If you want to be really pedantic, you can get completely different behavior if you built your system image in February in C with just:

  if (__DATE__[0] == 'F') {
    // February
  } else {
    // Not February
  }
