AT is talking about the result of the function call.  The behaviour of
the program  be unspecified (one of two possible orders of evaluation
will be used) but the result from f will be the same (and hence fully
defined) in both cases.

The key part is in 8.5.1.2 "Function call" paragraph 5:

  "The initialization of a parameter, including every associated value
  computation and side effect, is indeterminately sequenced with respect
  to that of any other parameter."

so in

  extern foo(int a, int b);
  int i = 1;
  int r = foo(++i, ++i);

either the first argument will be 2 and the second 3, or the first will
be 3 and the second 2.
