I have an old Linux system. The man page for date says:
%s seconds since `00:00:00 1970-01-01 UTC' (a GNU
extension)
GNU sh-utils 2.0.11 October 2000
The man page on a newer Linux system doesn't have the GNU extension comment.
I was assuming it had been picked up by POSIX but I don't keep track of that
sort of thing nor do I know where to look for the fine print.
