Interestingly, following the links from there to
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Non-measurable_subset give an example of
what might be a reality inconsistent with math:
"""
These sets are rich enough to include every conceivable definition of a
set that arises in standard mathematics, but they require a lot of
formalism to prove that sets are measurable.
"""
So if reality actually includes non-measurable sets (something that
wouldn't seem too impossible, given the definition, such as "space where
you can't pick any random position", i.e., quantum space), you already
have a serious problem.
