    3.3.1 Point of declaration [basic.scope.pdecl]

    The point of declaration for a name is immediately after its complete declarator (clause 8) and before its initializer (if any),

    The behaviour is well defined if the declaration is at file scope. If you have the declaration at function scope and if you use foo later on [which would be initialized to some unspecified value in that case] the behaviour would be undefined.
