- I can't tell whether this discussion deals with implementation defined
- behavior, unspecified behavior, or undefined behavior; there are
- differences.
-
- Just one point, though: the standard does give license to an
- implementor, it's the other way around. The standard tells
- programmers what guarantees they have about the implementation's
- behavior. If the standard says nothing about an issue, then there are
- no guarantees.
