Then you're breaking a contract!
GNU Radio has to rely on you only writing samples you admit that you
produce -- otherwise, the write pointer can't advance, and the next
general_work will be offered the same buffer space again.

There is no local buffer! You directly work on the pseudocircular
buffers; everything else would introduce unnecessary copy overhead.
