I don't think so. The corresponding text of the C standard clearly
indicates that the first argument is expected to point to an array. By
that the provisions of 7.1.4 take effect:
If an argument to a function has an invalid value (such as ...,
or a null pointer, ...) ..., the behavior is undefined.
