   No.

   There exists no such guarantee. The problem you are referring to was resolved   
   by   
      
   http://www.open-std.org/jtc1/sc22/wg21/docs/cwg_defects.html#672   
      
   From FDIS, [expr.new] p16:   
      
   "The invocation of the allocation function is indeterminately sequenced with   
   respect to the evaluations of expressions in the new-initializer.   
   Initialization of the allocated object is sequenced before the value   
   computation of the new-expression. It is    
   unspecified whether expressions in the new-initializer are evaluated if the   
   allocation function returns the null pointer or exits using an exception."   
      
   Maybe you could explain us a bit what you particular concerns are in regard to   
   this wording state? Why do you need this ordering guarantee?
