"The old [engine] had grown to resemble the closing stages of a game of 
Jenga, in which making any change was a delicate operation that risked 
bringing the whole edifice crashing down. In particular, there were a 
dozen open bugs [...] that I had no idea how to fix."

programs that look like "the closing stages of a game of Jenga"? :-D
