You have been lucky, or rather, you've seen the effects of how memory
is allocated on the heap: you ought to get a segmentation fault when
you access memory outside the array, but sometimes you don't see this
because some extra memory is allocated.

Try using a library like Electric Fence to test this:

That talked about a convention used for that particular array -- in
general arrays are not NULL terminated.
