More than 15 years ago I ended up with one of those in a C++ program.
I’m sure the real ssue was somewhere else in the code, but if I removed one specific comment (or maybe it was a print to console, it was forever ago) it would segfault, otherwise it ran fine.
// this is a load bearing comment. Do not remove.

We had that in our DOS C code base. We didn’t have a debugger so we had a function that output debug messages to console if the debug flag was set.
There were more than a few instances where a crash would stop happening if we added debug messages.
We put it down to the linker rearranging modules to fit in memory as our exe was more than a megabyte in size.
