In my very humble and purely personal opinion, the fact that they are "a 
modified subset ..." makes the implementation "wrong". Largely because of 
users' expectations and partly because it would have surely been easier to 
incorporate a standard library than to re-invent the wheel. No offence to 
anyone intended.
