Since it's silent about that, if you write a for-loop
that relies on presence or absence of cacheing behaviour,
the result is undefined. The behaviour of yield-from
on the same iterator would also be undefined.
It's meaningless to talk about whether one undefined
construct has the same semantics as another.
