A ticket in the Scala bug tracker:

  http://lampsvn.epfl.ch/trac/scala/ticket/92

The behaviour is thanks to Scala's precedence rules. The above
parenthesises as:

  (s += "B") + "C"

That is, "B" is appended to s and the result stored back in s, and then
"C" is appended but that result is discarded.
