That is a strange one. I'll try on Monday and see if I can cause problems by putting 2.9v or more on A5. The chip should be fine up to 3.3v though - in fact I think even ADC inputs are 5v tolerant on these chips (maybe don't try it until I checked that though!)

By the way, if you do save something that breaks the chip, check out: http://www.espruino.com/Troubleshooting
It shows you how to boot up without loading the saved code.
