To clarify, the comments in my posting were meant to be read as
saying the given text is the entire program, and that it is strictly
conforming with respect to conforming hosted implementations.
(Incidentally, given the rules for freestanding implementations, I'm
not sure that it is even possible for any program to be strictly
conforming with respect to conforming freestanding implementations.
In any case my statements were meant only in the context of hosted
implementations.)

A conforming implementation is free to emit a diagnostic whenever it
chooses, for any reason at all, regardless of whether the program
source is legal C or not.  (I feel obliged to point out that, if a
preprocessing #error directive is encountered, then there may be an
exception to that statement;  however, there is no such #error in
the program shown above.)

I explained the context of my previous statements above.  Sorry for
not saying that in the original message.

The semantics described in the ISO C standard don't admit that
possibility.  Whether foo() has external linkage or internal
linkage doesn't change that.  Only those actions initiated by
statements in main() are ever elaborated.

It's a grammatical fine point.  I think for present purposes it's
okay to gloss over the distinction, and say this statement may be
read as saying "the program does not have undefined behavior".

It isn't.  In the first program the offending expression is never
evaluated, because foo() is never called.
