This is exactly what the MachO and COFF dumpers do yes, and basically the same as the ELF dumper.

You are correct that in practice there is no way this can happen, at least not by running the tool itself.   In light of this I don't see how I can write a test to tickle this, and I think perhaps an assert would be more appropriate here?
