When we assume that:
(a) HHH is an x86 emulator that is in the same memory space as
DDD. (b) HHH emulates DDD according to the semantics of the x86
language.
then we can see that DDD emulated by HHH cannot possibly get past
its own machine address 0000217a.

Yes, we see. In fact DDD is not needed at all.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Straw_man

You should also point a link to the equivocation fallacy. You use it
more often than straw man.

Isomorphism is not equivocation

The use of HHH for many purposes (a specific program, an unpsecified
memeber of a set of programs, a hypothetical program) is.
Your first posting looked like you were going to apply equivocation
later in the discussion. Now, after several later messages, it seems
that you want to apply the fallacy of "moving the goal posts" instead.

HHH correctly predicts what the behavior of DDD would be if this HHH
never aborted its emulation of DDD.

Problem is, DDD is then not calling itself, but the non-input of a
not-aborting HHH.
 

*This is before any aborting occurs*
*This is before any aborting occurs*
*This is before any aborting occurs*
The behavior of
the directly executed DDD and executed HHH
is different from the behavior of
the emulated DDD and the emulated HHH
and all four of them are emulated by the world
class x86 emulator libx86emu
It is easy to see that when the executed HHH emulates
DDD that it does this correctly when we look at the
execution trace and see the the first four instructions
of DDD are listed.

Then this emulated DDD calls an emulated HHH(DDD).
It is easy to see that when the executed HHH emulates
itself emulated DDD that it does this correctly when we
look at the execution trace and see the the first four
instructions of DDD are listed again.
