[Bug c++/17910] New: wrong order of static initialization

[kunert at physik dot tu-dresden dot de]

#include <iostream>
using namespace std;

struct A {
    int x;
    A(){ x = 17; }
};

template<class T>
struct B {
    static A a;
    int x;
    B(){ x = a.x; }
};

template<class T>
A B<T>::a;

B<int> b;

int main()
{
    cout << b.x  << ' ' << b.a.x << endl;
}

The abould code should initialize B<int>::a before the global static b,
resulting in '17 17'. However, the actual output is '0 17'.
