   No. The Halting Theorem has no problems demonstrable with leaky   
   simulation (emulation) sandboxes.   
      
   Topics can be explored with leaky sandboxes, topics such as "How can   
   leaky sandboxes and their effects be characterised?" and "What are the   
   relationships between various recursive functions and various Turing   
   Machines and their generalisations?"
