Oops, I gave too much credit to M$ ;-/
Reordering the above as below, it gives

[14:24] C:\pywk\clp>cl/nologo p101.cpp
p101.cpp

[14:38] C:\pywk\clp>p101
0 1 2   0 1 2   0 1 2

vs g++ from mingw using msys shell:

[14:35] /c/pywk/clp>cat -n p101.cpp
     1  #include <cstdio>
     2  int main(){
     3      char abc[]="abc";
     4      for(int i=0;i<3;++i){
     5          for(int i=0;i<3;++i) printf("%d ", i);
     6          printf("%c ", abc[i]);
     7      }
     8      return 0;
     9  }
    10  
[14:35] /c/pywk/clp>g++  p101.cpp -o p101a.exe
