 program whose behavior is undefined, which happened by chance to give
 the desired results with another C or C++ compiler.
 
-For example, in many nonoptimizing compilers, you can write @samp{x;}

 Problems often result from expressions with two increment operators,
 as in @code{f (*p++, *p++)}.  Your previous compiler might have
 interpreted that expression the way you intended; GCC might
