Rule 13.2 states: "The value of an expression and its persistent side effects
shall be the same under all permitted evaluation orders".

Eclair complains about a Rule 13.2 violations because validate_far_branch()
assigns to rc, and the entirety of commit_far_branch() is also assigned to rc.

I'm unsure that the complaint is accurate, but rewriting commit_far_branch()
to use the comma operator seems to make Eclair happy.
