Jerome Fine replies:

I assume that the above statement could have two possible
interpretations:

(a)  j = ++i;  k = ++i;  a[j] = k;
(b)  j = ++i;  k = ++i;  a[k] = j;

(i)  Are there any other interpretations?  If so, what is the equivalent code?
(ii) Does gcc 3.3 produce a warning or an error message?

Sincerely yours,

Jerome Fine
