Thanks, collectively, to all those who posted and mailed replies to my
Turbo-C `possibly incorrect assignment' question.

Turbo-C was suggesting that `(p = foo())' might have been a typing
error, truly intended as `(p == foo()).  My concerns about p being
evaluated before the result of foo() was assigned were baseless.
