It's not going to melt the block:
Magnesium melting point 1,202°F
Aluminium melting point 1,221°F

It will not make the car explode, it's not going to catch on fire.

It will, however, cause the piston rings to wear down faster, and under MORE boost (more than the supercharger could produce probably) weaken the block eventually, but we'll be fine. First thing to go under too much boost would be the crank/rods/pistons anyhow.
