) Surely both *p and p[0] are undefined in that case.

Well, technically what you just said is meaningless, you see,
'undefined' is not a value that a variable can take in C.

Pedantically, it is 'undefined behaviour' to access both these values.
The behaviour need not be the same for those two cases.  But then again, it
need not be the same when you compare the first case with the first case.
