Does not follow. It's quite common in C-based languages to have broken
code which only manifests bugs in a certain machine context. (For
example, reading from unintialized memory.) Code which is logically
equivalent will not necessarily generate the same machine code, thus
you can have two pieces of logically equivalent code but only have one
of them set you up for a crash due to a bug elsewhere.
