[...]
I don't see how the omission of "upon use of a nonportable or erroneous
program construct or of erroneous data" in the C++ standard makes any
real difference.
C definition, all standard editions:
behavior, upon use of a nonportable or erroneous program construct
or of erroneous data, for which this International Standard imposes
no requirements
C++ definition, before C++11:
behavior, such as might arise upon use of an erroneous program
construct or erroneous data, for which this International Standard
imposes no requirement
C++ definition, C++11 and later:
behavior for which this International Standard imposes no requirements
In all cases, "undefined behavior" is determined either by an explicit
statement or by the omission of any definition of the behavior (or, in
C, by violation of a "shall" outside a constraint).
