[Moved to DR at the November, 2014 meeting.]

Proposed resolution (February, 2014):

Change 6.9.3.2 [basic.start.static] paragraph 2 as follows:

...Dynamic initialization of a non-local variable with static storage duration is either ordered or unordered. Definitions of explicitly specialized class template static data members have ordered initializa-tion. Other class template static data members (i.e., implicitly or explicitly instantiated specializations) have unordered initialization. Other non-local variables with static storage duration have ordered initialization unordered if the variable is an implicitly or explicitly instantiated specialization, and otherwise is ordered [Note: an explicitly specialized static data member or variable template specialization has ordered initialization. —end note]. Variables with ordered initialization...

According to 6.9.3.2 [basic.start.static] paragraph 2,

Definitions of explicitly specialized class template static data members have ordered initialization. Other class template static data members (i.e., implicitly or explicitly instantiated specializations) have unordered initialization.

This is not clear whether it is referring to static data members of explicit specializations of class templates or to explicit specializations of static data members of class template specializations. It also does not apply to static data member templates and non-member variable templates.
