Thanks for the clarification: that's one of the less sensible things
about the C standard.  Pointers really ought to work like integers
whether or not they point to freed storage or utter nonsense.

For reference: C++ (which softens the use of such a pointer value to implementation-defined) comments that "Some implementations might define that copying an invalid pointer value causes a system-generated runtime fault.".
