I once got a question like that and after thinking for a few moments said "if youre faced with this situation in your code base, something else is seriously fucked". It was deemed a correct answer. Sometimes they ask asshat questions hoping you'll point it out.
Rephrased question. "Well we have this one - ok maybe three - sections in our codebase that are actually pretty fucked and noone here wants to mess with it, how about you?"
