It's quite possible for two different variables in 2 different function to
have the same value, if they're automatic variables.

Ex
  foo() {
    int x;

   x = 10;
}

  bar {
    int x;

   printf("%d\n",x);
}

...
   foo();
   bar();

would in all probalility print 10;

since function calls and returns don't change the value on the stack were x
is stored in both sub's.
