Though it's not clear from the above message, later messages have made
it clear that the concept he was talking about is the one explained in the
following sentence:

"An array subscript is out of range, even if an object is apparently accessible with the given
subscript (as in the lvalue expression a[1][7] given the declaration int a[4][5] ) (6.5.6)."

Therefore, not only is it thinkable, it has in fact been thought. Since that
sentence comes from section J.2 of the C standard, it has been
endorsed by the committee as the correct interpretation of 6.5.6.

No such wording was present in C90, but when the committee confirmed
that this is the correct interpretation for C90, they decided to clarify that
fact by adding a comment to section J.2 of the C99 standard. There was no
corresponding change to the normative wording of the standard, because
the committee felt that no change was needed.
