Hello Alex,

null pointer are ok - provides they are handled in orderly manner. An
exception is orderly manner.

i.E. On my old Atari many years ago one could easily access (int*)0
returning some silly value - no MMU was there to prevent that. Now that
is not orderly manner.

The same holds for  out-of-range values. If they are handled in an
orderly manner (exception) then it's ok. Ada's mod types are ok as well
as the wrap around is properly defined and not "undefined behavior".

Martin
