Per mdoc(5):
STANDARDS
References any standards implemented or used. If not adhering to
any standards, the HISTORY section should be used instead.
So we normally only include a STANDARDS section when something is
standardized and do not include that section when it is not part of
any standard. The odd ball case may occur when a manpage describes a
mix of standardized and non-standard functions, but outside that
exception we do not say "STANDARDS: This is not standard"
...and anyway, err(3) has been proposed for standardization!
