Unusual as it is for me to find something defensible about C, this is
one.  LOTS of languages have deliberately undefined behavior.  In fact,
regarding the matter under discussion (evaluation order of actual
parameters to a function call), I'd conjecture that EVERY traditional
language leaves it undefined.  (I suppose something like FORTH might
define it by accident because of general rules of the language.)
