section 26.3.9.2 states its undefined behavior in the example in par
3:
[ Example:
int addr [] = {2 , 3 , 1 , 4 , 4};
valarray <size_t > indirect (addr , 5);
valarray <double > a (0. , 10) , b (1. , 5);
a[ indirect ] = b;
results in undefined behavior since element 4 is specified twice in the
indirection. ‹end example ]
