No, there wouldn't be any hole, since it would sequence like so:
$sys.compile() is called with the code for $sys.log
$sys.compile() logs being called and the vital stats (who, what, when, etc)
$sys.compile() compiles the method.
No recursion...
(as for beating this into the ground, what else do we have to do? :)
