I would have to disagree.

Rule 5-2 Effect- Batting out of order specifically states that any out on the play stands

whereas

Rule 5-6c - making contact with an illegal or altered bat makes no mention of any out standing.

therefore

given the difference in the wording in the rulebook for these two plays, I would have to say that the out stands in BOO situation but not in an illegal bat situation.
