Eh? I thought that would only be "legal" if it was specified to be implementation-defined behavior. Which would, frankly, be perfectly good. But since it is specified as undefined behavior, programmers are forbidden to use it, and compilers assume it doesn't happen/doesn't exist.

The entire notion that "since this is undefined behavior it does not exist" is the biggest fallacy in modern compilers.
