Although &p[ARRAYSIZE] may not dereference an invalid location, it's value
may not have much meaning, either.  For example, if you were running on
an 80*86 chip, and p was an array filling a segment, then &p[ARRAYSIZE]
has a value of 0!  In particular, the for loop would terminate immediately.
I don't believe that this technique is good form, even if it looks like
it says what you mean more clearly.  And I also don't believe that its
portable.
