IIUC, the "breaking change" is that in C99 a pointer value to a temporary array
element never becomes indeterminate (despite access through it raising UB), but
in C11 it does.
E.g.
```C
struct S { int a[1]; };
struct S fun(void) {
return (struct S){0};
}
int main(void) {
int* p = fun().a;
int m = *p; // UB in C99 and C11
*p += 42; // UB in C99 and C11
*p; // UB in C11, but OK in C99?
int* q = p; // q is more indeterminate in C11?
}
```
