--- Comment #3 from Jonathan Wakely <redi at gcc dot gnu.org> ---
The call to a member function before all base classes are initialized is
undefined behaviour:

12.6.2 [class.base.init] p16

  Member functions (including virtual member functions, 10.3) can be called for
  an object under construction.[...] However, if these operations are performed
  in a ctor-initializer (or in a function called directly or indirectly from a
  ctor-initializer) before all the mem-initializers for base classes have
  completed, the result of the operation is undefined.

There is a very similar example below that paragraph.
