Not to beat a dead horse there, but I think the operative word here is
"evaluation". The ++ and -- operators are not part of the "evaluation" of the
condition, at least not in the strictest sense of that word.

I could be way off base here, in which case never mind... but without perusing a
C standards book very closely (which is no longer necessary since you've changed
the code) I'd bet it could work either way legally.
