It does not happen often, but the overlap detection can allow faces within an island to overlap.
The algorithm detects only line-line intersection, but in certain (artificial) circumstances, two faces can overlap so that there are vertex-vertex or vertex-line intersections only. A simple example can be downoaded from: http://adam.dominec.eu/fail.blend
