I fail to see how running rogue can be illegal if warnings are legal.  So long
as it spawns a new process to run rogue, and the code produced by the
compiler (and interpretation of the rest of the program) does not depend on
the results of the rogue game, I can't see how the standard prohibits it.

Yes, it's silly, but I still fail to see how it is prohibited.
