Nothing the OS does can prevent machine code from overrunning a buffer.

Absolute nonsense. Perhaps buffer overruns can't be prevented using
C++, but they *can* be prevented.

Not by the *OS*.

Sure it can. Not in Windows and not with C++, perhaps. An OS can
surely make it impossible to write safe code and a real OS is
required to make safe code possible.
