hmm looking at osf/1
(the closet thing to posix I've ever seen......)

#ifdef _POSIX_SOURCE

/*
 * If the user defines _BSD, they are obviously not looking for
 * POSIX definitions with respect to wait, so give 'em the BSD
 * interface.
 *
 */
#ifndef _KERNEL
#ifndef _BSD                /* POSIX definition of wait() */
#ifdef _NO_PROTO
extern pid_t wait();
#else
extern pid_t wait(int *);
#endif /* _NO_PROTO */
#endif /* _BSD */
.....
#endif /*_POSIX_SOURCE*/

and further down

/*
 * Use of this union is deprecated
 */
union wait
{


but no definition of wait_t

I don't think POSIX has ever heard of wait_t
(BTW what IS it?. it's not in 2.0.5 either..)
