And I think it is always _allowed_ behavior.  This version of
this compiler for this target happens to not re-arrange code
with -O0, but that's not gauranteed.  It may stop working in
the future if you take that route.

There are already enough places where one almost has to depend
on compiler/platform assumptions -- you don't want to do it when
you don't have to.  ;)
