So as a result we will get:
#if defined(__CYGWIN__) ||
defined(_POSIX_VERSION) && (_POSIX_VERSION >= 199506L)
Did I get it correct now? But look here what I dig up in status pages (not
all compilers unfortunately provide config_info):
A) gcc 3.1 on MacOS
_POSIX_C_SOURCE is not defined
_POSIX_VERSION=198808L
_POSIX2_VERSION=199212L
B) gcc 3.2 on HPUX
_POSIX_C_SOURCE is not defined
_POSIX_VERSION=199009L
_POSIX2_VERSION=199209L
C) gcc 3.2, gcc 2.95.3, intel 6.0, intel 7.0 kylix on linux
_POSIX_C_SOURCE is defined
_POSIX_VERSION=199506L
_POSIX2_VERSION=199209L
D) gcc 2.95.3, gcc 3.2 on OpenBSD
_POSIX_C_SOURCE is not defined
_POSIX_VERSION=199009L
_POSIX2_VERSION=199212L
Cases A,B and D will be ruled out.
Any suggestions?
