Historical Context: Donkey Kong 64 notoriously required the physical 8MB N64 Expansion Pak because an elusive heap allocation bug crashed the 4MB base console. Clean-room static recompilation remaps the 32-bit big-endian N64 memory space into safe native 64-bit virtual memory pages.

Clean-Room Symbolic Decomp vs Generative AI Synthesizer:
Manual Verified AST:

Strict structural recovery; correct endian swap logic; exact union alignment for actor state structs; no hallucinated pointers.

Naive AI Synthesizer:

Mishandles MIPS branch delay slots; hallucinates standard malloc() pointers; crashes on N64 32-bit hardware register traps.
