SQL99 saith:
        g) implementation-defined: Possibly differing between SQL-           implementations, but specified by the
implementorfor each           particular SQL-implementation.
 
        h) implementation-dependent: Possibly differing between SQL-           implementations, but not specified by
ISO/IEC9075, and not           required to be specified by the implementor for any particular
SQL-implementations.

Behavior of nondeterministic functions falls in the second category ...
