I seem to vaguely recall discussion of this point in some X3J11 meeting,
and it is not clear to me whether or not &A[N] being undefined was
intended or not.  This is another case where an official query should
be sent to X3.

For people who didn't follow the argument, &A[N] is equivalent to &(*(A+(N)))
but *(A+(N)) is a semantic violation.  (A+(N)) is okay, but applying * to
it is not okay.

If this reminds you of the sizeof(((foo*)0)->bar) argument, well...
