That's not a non-local variable or a static data member. The relevant
text is 6.7 [stmt.decl] p4
If control re-enters the declaration (recursively) while the object is
being initialized, the behavior is undefined. [Example:
int foo(int i)
{
static int s = foo(2*i); // recursive call – undefined
return i+1;
}
—end example]
