Maybe a better word to use here is not "working" but "good" or "right".

If the code had no comments and all its variable names were completely arbitrary and the indenting was missing or goofy, it would be "working" but not "right" or "good", even if the calling sequences were all standards-conforming and it always produced the right results, before and after the change to the compiler.
