You're in good company: no other app can either. :)

With OS X Apple joined the rest of the world in preventing an executable 
from modifying itself.

As the others here have noted, just moving stack "b" into a separate 
stack file will allow you to save it.  You can even store it in the 
bundle on OS X if you like, just not in the executable itself if you 
want it to save changes made at runtime.

For tips on saving data from standalones this excellent article by Sarah 
Reichelt at revJournal.com may be helpful:
