   HP solved this, I believe (at least, according to an article in _The Journal
   of C Language Translation_).  I looked into this, way back when I was
   involved with development system work, and came up with a couple of
   solutions, at least one of which will likely be used.  (They're both fairly
   obvious.)

HP is *already* claiming Posix compliance, and you say one of the
solutions "will likely be used".  *That* is precisely the problem.
