Second, you state that this usage is valid. When you first raised the
matter, you were so certain that it was sanctified by standard that you
asked me if I would implement it if you could quote an RFC sanctifying it
(I said yes) and went off to find one. To your surprise, you couldn't, and
now want to say that "valid" is defined for every OS in every context by
the man page for one library call on one OS (or possibly several).
Would the POSIX/IEEE/SuS be authoritative enough?
Enough for me, yes, no matter how crazy I think it is ;-)
But as you seem to imply it still looks like Not Our Problem (tm).
