Thanks. Are all the features you're testing for specified by POSIX 1003.2-1992? (That is, are they all suitably *old* POSIX?) If so, these patches look good, except that the documentation needs to be updated (it should mention the POSIX version, for example) and a NEWS item needs to be added. Do we need to bother with a new branch? I'd say that this is pretty much ready for the master, modulo the documentation fixes.
