Yes. Also, a conforming implementation of Ada could print "Happy
Birthday", although the output you showed above is more likely.
It's also likely to drop characters, because some software is
incrementing an index into a buffer and putting a character at
that index. And we all know what happens when two tasks
increment an index simultaneously without synchronization.
