It might be a bit misleading to call this behaviour 'undefined'.
why?
As Alexandre points out, control execution is defined by the order the connections appear in the netlist and so have reliable results each time the patch is run.
It's not really the same problem you have in other languages where there is a runtime ambiguity.
that's only because we have a single runtime, that has a certain implementation which results in a given behaviour for an "undefined" one.
this doesn't make it less "undefined" behaviour.
And is probably more an issue with the Pd environment UI than the language specification.
what *is* the Pd language then? i think that the language of Pd and it's UI are non-separable.
