We seem to say "happens before" relation or "happens before" order (with the quotes). Check the style of the quotes and ascertain we actually want quotes here.

Discovered in CWG on Tuesday.

30.5 [thread.condition] p4 has the wrong kind of quotes for "happens before".

Suggestion: Drop all quotation marks. Use proper hyphenation: "happens-before relation" and use this phrase unless in a verb context ("X happens before Y"). Have a cross-reference to intro.races for all foreign mentions.
