<p>
Not allowing a single read to observe multiple values means
not reloading local variables from shared memory.
For example, a compiler must not discard <code>i</code> and reload it
a second time from <code>*p</code> in this program:
</p>

<pre>
i := *p
if i &lt; 0 || i &gt;= len(funcs) {
	panic("invalid function index")
}
