This coincided with a geth-meetup in Berlin, so the geth team could fairly quickly analyse the issue. He submitted a proof of concept which called the `dataCopy` precompile, where the input slice and output slice were overlapping but shifted. Doing a `copy` where the `src` and `dest` overlaps is not a problem in itself, however, the `returnData`slice was _also_ using the same memory as a backing-array.
