For a built in type, the behavior of the two ++ operations on f are 
unordered, and that will lead to undefined behavior.

If f is of a user defined type, with an operator++ defined, I think 
while the order the two operations is unspecified, they can't get 
intermixed, so I think it may just be unspecified behavior, and no nasal 
demons allowed.

There is no requirement for the implementation to define the behavior, 
and it doesn't need to be consistant.

"Valid" would be a question of semantics. There is nothing that requires 
a diagnostic, and the implementation has no grounds for not creating a 
program. but for built in types, there is no requirements on what 
happens, and for user types the order things happen is unspecified.
