Although we don't really support old versions of POSIX, and in any case the namespace for these symbols is reserved, I think it would be helpful to those browsing the header file if the new symbols were appropriately marked to indicate that they were added in 1003.1-2001 (or whichever edition of POSIX did add them). See, for example, how <time.h> hides certain symbols unless the application asked for 1003.1b-1993 namespace. -GAWollman To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-standards" in the body of the message
