Do you have any references for me? I could not find anything in the ANSI-C

Not explicitly, but there is the C-FAQ which is very useful when trying to
understand the intricacies of the C language, especially pointers and
arrays. It's available at serveral places on the 'net, for instance
http://www.faqs.org/faqs/C-faq/faq/ .
I don't know if this particular issue is addressed there though.
(While this doesn't directly belong on this list, the kernel code tends to
get quite chummy with pointers and so has an indirect bearing on
understanding kernel code).
