C99 3.17.2 defines "indeterminate value" as "either an unspecified value or a trap representation". 6.2.6.1p5 says of trap representations: "If the stored value of an object has such a representation and is read by an lvalue expression that does not have character type, the behavior is undefined." Possibly other parts of the standard also also make it undefined behavior to access an uninitialized character-type variable; I haven't looked too closely. paul
