Actually, it isn't legal C, since according to the reference
manual the "&" operator can only be applied to Lvalues, and
neither arrays nor procedures are Lvalues (since they can't
appear on the left-hand side of an assignment statement).

It still seems like a really stupid thing for a compiler to do.
