What do the references in the FAQ mean? I didn't see anything about it
in the introduction.

E.g. at
http://c-faq.com/aryptr/aryptr1.html
it says "References: ISO Sec. 6.5.4.2"

One might guess that this refers to some ISO standard, but neither ISO
C99 nor ISO C11 has a section 6.5.4.2. Or it might refer to the second
senetnce in 6.5.4, which for both C99 and C11 is "Unless the type name
specifies a void type, the type name shall specify qualified or
unqualified scalar type and the operand shall have scalar type." which
doesn't make sense as a reference here.
