OK, will do it in the next version tomorrow.

Yes, this sounds more safe and clear to me, should be done in another patch.

This one should be `conditionally`, variable offset disallowed, fixed allowed.

I think both should be disallowed.

If alu sanitation is triggered, alu op on func and dynptr would be
rejected by retrieve_ptr_limit();
otherwise, it could be dangerous.
