Yes, the behaviour I was describing is particular to valarray<> -- as
opposed to vector<> which does resizing.  Valarray<> should be thought
of as a low level building bloc.  Automatic resizing is too high level
for the purpose of valarray.

By "undefined behaviour", I meant what the C++ standard means.
Anything can happen.  The implementation may accept or reject it, or
the program may reformat your hard drive.

Thanks,
