Looks to me like valid C.  If you could tell us what DID happen (i.e., what
got assigned to "p"), it might help.  If Borland's intent is to force you
to assign the result of the entire expression to something, then it should
have generated some diagnostic (as you said).  Producing "funny" code is
not acceptable.
