Legendary sudo rm -rf /

Just curious, what happens in OS X Maverick if someone issues sudo rm -rf /?
I heard most modern *nix systems are protected from this epic fail.

In the interest of science, a VM died to answer this question:

testrm:~ admin$ sudo rm -rf /

Interestingly, it succeeded. Back in the Slackware 2 days, I tried this on Linux and after it deleted the dynamically linked libraries rm was using, it failed.
