thats just true as long as we don't make use of associative law for
AND expressions.
Otherwise we would fail for much simpler cases like
entern int doo ();
int foo ()
{
int c, r = 0;
if ((c = foo ()) != 0 && c < 20)
r = 1;
return 0;
}
as for this left-hand operand has side-effects, but as it is the first
one, we would chain it as AND. So we get wrong sequence.
