That's the way it works.  P1 initialises 51 bytes of storage and P2 is
reading 1024 bytes of storage (which have only the first 51 bytes set
to a known value.)  The answer is to make P2 only use the number of
bytes that P1 sets.  You can look into %len, operational descriptors,
and passing another parameter indicating the size of P1's variable and
see what works best for your situation.
