You're quite right that adding to a collection while iterating over it is
usually a bad idea, although I don't think it's possible to tell exactly
what will happen because we don't know the actual class for either the
iterator or the collection. Aside from compilation errors, without knowing
what the fragment is supposed to do it's impossible to say how it might be
wrong.
