It is a violation of the C++ One Definition Rule, so undefined behaviour.

It will not behave correctly if you have a class that has CTest as a
(direct or indirect) base class and adds new virtual functions to the
vtable, because the new functions will be expected to appear in
different slots in the vtable depending on which version of the base
class has been seen.
