Removed from undocumented: yes, for 2.33.  But there is no need
to add them to unimplemented.  These functions currently don't 
exist on Linux, and may well never exist.

It is not clear to me that the issue is that simple.  No change.

I don't know what version of undocumented.3 you are talking
about, but three of the above are not listed in my page.

fwscanf is indeed not documented; not sure why you think it is, 
unless the presence of a POSIX page confused you.

This exists, and is not documented.
