Program won't crash when it should

(GCC C)
I ran a pointer over each member of an integer array, storing one character of input in each cell.

The program seems to consistently crash when I try to store X+3 or more characters, where X is the size of the array, but if I do not exceed X+2 it will not crash.

Why does it crashes exactly at the point it does, but not for X+1 or X+2?

C99 7.19.2p2 says:


    A text stream is an ordered sequence of characters composed into _lines_, each line consisting of zero or more characters plus a terminating new-line character. Whether the last line requires a terminating new-line character is implementation-defined.


So again, you're stupid. And again, you have no possible future as a programmer.
