assignment inside boolean expression [message #20613]

I was wondering if it's common knowlege that one can put an IDL
assignment inside
a boolean expression (like in the C language). For example

if (v = 0) then ... assigns v and does not execute the "then"
statement, while
if (v = 1) then ... assigns v and does execute the then.

Just as in C I find this leads to really nasty bugs.
