variable assignments and parameter expansion in a single command

[Mike Frysinger]

i'm trying to determine whether POSIX allows for utilizing of variables in 
simple commands that were defined earlier in the same command ... in other 
words, whether this snippet:
unset A B
A="moo" B="$A more"
echo $A , $B
should display moo twice or just once:
moo , moo more
moo ,  more

my reading of the POSIX spec says this is OK, but i'd like to hear more from 
people who like to read this sort of thing for fun :)

specifically the part where it says that the statement is evaluated from 
beginning to end of the command text and that each variable assignment should 
be expanded individually
