[New-bugs-announce] [issue33492] Updating the Evaluation order section to cover *expression in calls

New submission from Martijn Pieters <mj at python.org>:

Can the *Evaluation order* (_evalorder) section in reference/expressions.rst please be updated to cover this exception in a *call* primary (quoting from the _calls section):


    A consequence of this is that although the ``*expression`` syntax may appear
    *after* explicit keyword arguments, it is processed *before* the
    keyword arguments (and any ``**expression`` arguments -- see below).  So::

This exception to the normal expression evaluation order is rather buried in the _calls section only.
