  • Pointers to functions should not be compared using relational operators because the pointers represent external function labels and not actual addresses.

  • Dereferencing a pointer that contains an invalid value results in a trap if the address references protected memory or if the address is not properly aligned for the object being referenced.

  • A declaration of a pointer to an undefined structure tag is allowed, and the tag need not be defined in the source module unless the pointer is used in an expression.
