The current beahviour of crash and the proposed behaviour to follow glibc and *BSD are both perfectly compliant with the standard. The standard doesn't define what happens so either is acceptable. It isn't the developers we are punishing by not implementing this case, many of them don't are anyway, but we are hurting adoption of OpenSolaris and making it difficult to impossible to run some critical applications. -- Darren J Moffat
