The "unspecified" aspect refers to the ordering of evaluation of the
parameters - they are "indeterminately ordered".

So given "int foo(int a, int b)", the call "f(++i, ++i)" should be either:

	a = ++i;
	b = ++i;
	foo(a, b);

or

	b = ++i;
	a = ++i;
	foo(a, b);

It is thus unspecified whether a and b are 2 and 3, or 3 and 2
respectively.  But their sum will be the same.

It seems gcc has handled this as:

	++i;
	++i;
	a = i;
	b = i;

and AFAIUI, this interleaving is not allowed in C++17.

Prior to C++17, the code could do anything - segfault, return 42, buy
you flowers - whatever it liked.
